The integrated community : a study of alternative land development standards / by Berridge Lewinberg Greenberg Dark Gabor Ltd., Cosburn Patterson Wardman Limited, and Glatting Jackson Kercher Anglin Lopez... : NH15-133/1996E-PDF

This study assesses the current state of development standards and initiatives related to development controls by undertaking two tasks: conducting a literature review and by identifying the current development standards and exploring their physical manifestations in four North American cities. Development standards related to parks, hazard lands, storm water management, schools, roads, cycling, transit and land use were explored for the following cities: Toronto/Markham, Ontario; Calgary, Alberta; Portland, Oregon; and Ottawa/Kanata, Ontario. The study also developed a set of principles and guidelines for an alternative approach to development standards and demonstrated the potential of an alternative approach through the design of a fictitious community entitled the Integrated Community. The Integrated Community is a hybrid urban form which adopts successful elements from conventional urban and suburban community form, proposes an integration of physical and cultural elements of the landscape while respecting the natural environment.
