    THE HUMBER RIVER: THE 10-YEAR MONITORING REPORT FOR THE CANADIAN HERITAGE RIVERS SYSTEM October 2009 Lower Humber Valley, Toronto, TRCA, 2008 THE HUMBER CHALLENGE Our challenge is to protect and enhance the Humber River watershed as a vital and healthy ecosystem where we live, work and play in harmony with the natural environment. GUIDING PRINCIPLES To achieve a healthy watershed, we should: • Increase awareness of the watershed’s resources • Protect the Humber River as a continuing source of clean water • Celebrate, regenerate, and preserve our natural, historical and cultural heritage • Increase community stewardship and take individual responsibility for the health of the Humber River • Establish linkages and promote partnerships among communities • Build a strong watershed economy based on ecological health, and • Promote the watershed as a destination of choice for recreation and tourism The Humber River: The 10-Year Monitoring Report for the Canadian Heritage Rivers System i FRAGMENT: THE VALLEY Like a sweet wine flowing from the glass, the Humber of my boyhood years! First the stretch of the river valley as I knew it best, running south from Dundas Street to my beloved stone marvel of the Old Mill Bridge, a scant mile to the south, not forgetting to count a quarter-mile jog to the east halfway down to heighten the wonderment. What force of ten million years’ cunning erosion, the relentless path of an awkward giant carving out for himself great steps one by one as he strides on and on, thirsty now for a great cold draught of Lake Ontario water!

  • Chapter 6: Vaughan Metropolitan Centre (PDF)
    Figure 17: Location of Vaughan Metropolitan Centre 6 Vaughan Metropolitan Centre The City of Vaughan is undergoing significant growth, and has completed a considerable amount of planning to ensure that future development will be sustainable. The amalgamation of several communities originally created the City of Vaughan, but beyond those unique village core areas, a central focal point with a co- ordinated and unique downtown identity is still missing. To answer this concern, and the realities of growth planning in the Greater Golden Horseshoe, the City of Vaughan created a plan to construct a creative, cultural, and economic core area to service the growing needs of the city. The Vaughan Metropolitan Centre (VMC) includes the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre District, which is the broader surrounding area and permits a wide range of commercial and employment uses; and the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Node, the provincially-designated Urban Growth Centre located along the Highway 7 corridor. The Urban Growth Centre will include similar uses at higher densities. The Vaughan Metropolitan Centre has the potential to be the focal point of Vaughan and an example in best practices for the Source: City of Vaughan, Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Brochure, 2009 development of a 21st century urban core.

The costs for the proposed 2016-2017 VMC Marketing Campaign and Community Engagement Plan (Attachment 2) are covered by the Department’s existing operating budget. However, the 2017 program which includes site activations will require joint marketing efforts and partnerships with the landowners, the Region, the development and real estate industries.

Staff will also undertake to provide information on the public engagement events for inclusion in Council newsletters, City e- newsletters and other communication vehicles. Purpose The purpose of this report is to provide the VMC Sub-Committee with an update on the Community Engagement and Marketing for the VMC. Background - Analysis and Options The VMC Development Facilitator, Live Work Learn Play (LWLP), and staff have identified that placemaking activities, including a strong community engagement plan, are necessary to build credibility, understanding and buy-in for the VMC.
