The 2022 Ottawa Official Plan introduced 445.35 hectares of land into the urban boundary to facilitate the creation of Tewin, a new, sustainable and complete community that will be comprehensively planned and developed. The community planning and infrastructure design process for Tewin is advancing through a coordinated Planning Act and Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) process. The transportation and infrastructure plans will identify the recommended transportation, water, sanitary, and stormwater infrastructure required to service the new community.
The City and the Tewin project team will be hosting an in-person Public Open House on Thursday, January 9 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm at the Carlsbad Springs Community Centre, 6020 Piperville Road. This event is an opportunity to learn about and provide feedback on the Tewin project and the study process. Display panels will introduce a preliminary land use plan and options for supporting infrastructure, building off the conceptual community design strategies presented at the June 19, 2024 Open House. Information on the natural systems approach and sustainability will also be shared.
If you are planning on attending, please let the project team know at [email protected] so we can better facilitate the event. Please also indicate to us if you require any accommodations for accessibility or interpretation.
For more information, please visit www.tewin.ca or engage.ottawa.ca/tewin.
Following the Open House, comments on the project will be reviewed along with input received from interest holders and technical agencies. The information will be used to refine the preliminary land use plan and infrastructure options. A future public meeting will be held to share detailed transportation and infrastructure design concepts, as well as the preferred land use and community design plans for feedback.
