Duke Street Land Use Plan Engagement Hub

We’re excited to launch the Duke Street Land Use Plan Engagement Hub, an interactive webpage. Moving forward, the Engagement Hub will be your destination for all our digital engagement opportunities, from community polls to interactive mapping activities. After the Second Community Meeting, opportunities to provide feedback on the draft Guiding Principles will be made available on the Engagement Hub. Check it out here (and try out the Live, Work, Play map!) and stay tuned for more digital engagement opportunities as the plan progresses.

All information about the upcoming meetings and future engagement opportunities on the Engagement will be communicated via eNews, WhatsApp, and shared with community groups.
