Our Services

Development Approvals

Having worked with both public and private sector clients, we have a deep understanding of the development approvals process, the steps necessary to secure timely approvals, and the collective priorities of municipalities, land owners, other stakeholders and the general public. We provide comprehensive support for municipal approvals under the Planning Act.

Policy and Regulatory Studies

We apply our thorough understanding of the municipal and provincial regulatory context to develop policy and regulatory documents, as well as planning and urban design studies, which are easily understood and implemented, and that provide an appropriate balance of vision, certainty, and flexibility.

Strategic Council

Over the past 40 years, we have been involved in the leadership, planning and implementation of some of the most critical city-building plans and projects across Southern Ontario. In addition, we have been involved in numerous international development projects partnering with the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), the World Bank, Queens University and the University of Toronto. These experiences, including our expert knowledge of the governmental approvals process, enable us to provide valuable advice and efficiently navigate complex multi-stakeholder environments to create the conditions needed for success.

Stakeholder Engagement and Consultation

We believe that our projects should be founded on the experience, knowledge and needs of all stakeholders. Our team prides itself on preparing and delivering consultation and engagement processes for decision-makers to ensure diverse voices are heard and considered.
