Stony Mountain Site A Secondary Plan, Manitoba

Introduction

The Rural Municipality (RM) of Rockwood contracted the Nadi Group to develop a Secondary Plan on a local residential greenfield site. The plan is meant to provide land developers, home builders, and community members with the necessary tools and guidelines to ensure that the growth and development of this site will occur in a well-planned, integrated and environmentally sound manner.

Project Requirements

The plan, while future-oriented, is also meant to embrace an innovative approach to create a complete community. Our vision for this 67.7-acre parcel supports four main goals, forming the basis for the master plan concept and its guiding policies:

1. To deliver an attractive, inclusive neighborhood - Unique character with a unique lifestyle and recreational amenities.
2. To deliver a thriving community – Strong focus on family values and aging-in-place concepts.
3. To deliver a healthy, livable and resilient environment – Opportunities for seamless connectivity with ease of walking to beautiful public spaces.
4. To deliver a vibrant, sustainable housing – Diverse range of adaptable housing options.

Nadi Group developed the plan in consultation with a range of stakeholders, including the landowner, the RM of Rockwood and the Stony Mountain Town Council who were actively engaged in sharing their vision and interests for the future development of Stony Mountain.

Our Role

We developed a planning vision, while also setting goals and guiding principles in consultation with the RM of Rockwood. Moreover, we provided a conceptual master plan for the site, which supports the vision and structure of the secondary plan document. This project was completed in the fall of 2019.
