Tecumseh Hamlet Secondary Plan
Tecumseh Hamlet Secondary Plan
The Town of Tecumseh, in collaboration with DIALOG (planning/urban design consultant) and Dillon Consulting Limited (engineering consultant), has re-initiated the process to finalize the Tecumseh Hamlet Secondary Plan.
The Tecumseh Hamlet Settlement Area (see Key Map below) is situated south of County Road 22 and is generally delineated by County Road 19/Manning Road to the east, County Road 42 to the south and Banwell Road to the west.
The Tecumseh Hamlet Secondary Plan Area is a composite of primarily large undeveloped lands that are currently farmed. In addition, there are a number of natural heritage landscapes and existing homes. The scope of work will consider the broader Settlement Area to carefully integrate key municipal infrastructure elements between the Secondary Plan Area Lands and existing built-up areas of the Hamlet. These key infrastructure elements include the extension of roads, trails, and underground services. A broader focus will ensure a holistic approach to the evolution of the Settlement Area and ensure that the boundary satisfies the requirements of future class EA and Master Plan study.
The Secondary Plan will address the integration of existing and new development, land use distribution, and related infrastructure requirements. It will seek to strengthen mobility and street network connectivity; build an interconnected network of public open space; identify the location and distribution of community facilities; and identify the future development intensity and scope. One of the main goals of the Plan will be to deliver a complete, walkable and diverse community, comprising sustainable neighbourhoods through the provision of a wide variety of land uses and building types, supported and enhanced by quality private development and public spaces and amenities.
