What We Heard! Summary of Phase 2 of Community Consultation

This past summer, staff came back to the community with draft guidelines and policies based on the feedback and research gathered during Phase 1 of the residential infill and densification study.

The public feedback was gathered at open houses and through a survey; we had more than 130 people attend the open houses and close to 200 surveys completed from a range of age groups and neighbourhoods.

Residents, stakeholders and staff discussed infill housing typologies for Central Saanich, draft housing policy, and best practices regarding street design and parking. There were clear themes, such as ensuring adequate parking, and more, which you can ready about in the What We Heard Report.

What we heard will help to inform the final Housing Policy and infill design guidelines. Once drafted, staff will present the draft to stakeholders and to Council.

Thank you to everyone who has participated so far. Please stay tuned for updates, including the Council presentation to come later this fall.
