Central Kingston Growth Strategy

The City is launching the Central Kingston Growth Strategy, which aims to create a policy and regulatory framework to guide infill and intensification in the central area of the City. The aim of this strategy is to facilitate a long term vision for the residential areas of Central Kingston by preserving what is valued in Kingston’s communities and identifying the appropriate locations and forms for accommodating future growth.

The study area for the strategy includes the residential areas of central Kingston except for the area covered by the North King's Town Secondary Plan, the Kingston Provincial Campus Secondary Plan, and the downtown core and the Princess Street corridor (including Williamsville Main Street). View the study area map.

The City invites Kingstonians to share their experiences to help shape the Strategy. The Study will be informed by a series of public consultation and engagement activities which will encourage residents and stakeholders to engage with our team in strategic thinking and decision-making as the project progresses. From urban design workshops, to neighbourhood audits, and other web-based interactive engagement tools, we look forward to working with you, and learning from you, as we develop the new growth strategy for central Kingston.
