A framework to guide downtown growth that preserves and enhances its existing unique character...
The Municipality has retained a professional consultant for the development of a Downtown Secondary Plan. The Plan will include the following:
Urban Design Guidelines
Implement building and site design standards that respect and enhance the existing character of Almonte’s downtown as a Heritage Conservation District.
Riverwalk Interface Design Guidelines
Create site design standards that strengthen the interface between Riverwalk, private properties, and the Mississippi River.
Affordable Housing Bonusing
Implement policies that consider relaxing zoning requirements (height, setbacks, gross floor area) in exchange for the inclusion of affordable housing units.
Conceptual Massing
Develop preliminary building shapes and forms for key vacant lots and underutilized sites within the downtown area to understand and evaluate the redevelopment potential of these sites.
