Smart Growth Development Plan - City of Yellowknife
Home/Doing Business/Planning and Development Initiatives/Smart Growth Development Plan
The Smart Growth Development Plan is a long-range growth and development strategy seeking the integration and application of sustainable planning and development principles.
In 2007, Council dedicated $175,000.00 to the creation of a Plan to guide the City's future growth and development. The Department of Planning and Development secured additional funds totaling $510,000.00 to support the formulation of the Plan.
The creation of the Plan involved extensive public consultation including questionnaire surveys, focus groups, workshops, telephone surveys, open houses, and a community design charrette. More than 2,000 residents participated in the development of the Plan.
On July 26, 2010, Council adopted, for information, the Smart Growth Development Plan Final Recommendations Report and four background documents.
