Thanks to @JLeiper for identifying some of the hard choices we need to make on #planning when it comes to #climateaction. The #climate logic is clear: building compact, walkable 15-minute neighbourhoods (*not* more R1 zoning) is a #sprawl solution. Let's get it done!

With today's debate over the new Official Plan, we're pleased to have joined with local groups such as @greenspaceott @JustFood_Ottawa @WalkableO @OttawaAlliance @CAWI_IVTF to propose a number of improvements to the document, covering a range of environmental and social issues.
I’ve never thought of it this way: “you aren’t STUCK in traffic; you ARE traffic” @BrentToderian Mind blown! 💥💣🤯
Planning & Council voting on Official Plan in coming weeks. Current Draft not going to get us the #walkable #neighborhoods we want. A few critical revisions could make a world of difference. We have 4 revisions that we see as critical. Read 3rd one here: walkableottawa.ca/post/flying-bl…

"Through 5 thousand years of urban living, people have lived over the shop. Mostly because it was the only possible arrangement. Urban dwellers with something to produce or sell had to do it out of the only space available, & that was usually their home." walkableottawa.ca/post/live-work…
