The City of Oshawa has initiated an Integrated Planning Act and Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) Act Study (the Study) for the Columbus community, focusing on the Columbus Part II Plan Area.
The Study will help guide future growth and development within the Columbus Part II Plan Area, taking into consideration the historical context and cultural heritage of the area, land use, scale of development, transportation and servicing infrastructure, and the protection and enhancement of environmental and natural features.
The Study Area is generally bounded by Howden Road to the north, the Oshawa-Whitby boundary to the west, Winchester Road to the south and the east branch of the Oshawa Creek to the east. The limits of the Study Area have been defined to provide an appropriate assessment of land use, transportation and infrastructure requirements in and around the Columbus Part II Plan Area. The Columbus Part II Plan Area as identified in Schedule “E” of the Oshawa Official Plan forms part of and is located within the Study Area.
