Aside from Woodland Trails, another major development is coming up soon by Mattamy Homes. The land just north of Dundas on the east side of Woodland Trails is owned by Mattamy and is currently being developed for residential and mix use housing.
Detached, Semi-detached, townhomes and live-work type of homes are planned for this new subdivision. The subdivision is said to be called The Reserves, although the name is not finalized yet.
7.3 COMMUNITYSTRUCTURE
7.3.1 PURPOSE
NORTH OAKVILLE EAST SECONDARY PLAN February, 2008
Figure NOE1, the Community Structure Plan, establishes a range of components which define the general arrangement of land use and activity for the Planning Area.
Each component of the Community Structure Plan has its own function which is described in the following sections, together with the ultimate population, housing and employment targets.
7.3.2 URBAN CORE
The Urban Core designations reflect the most urban part of the North Oakville East Plan Area. These areas provide for the densest development and the highest order activities including a full range of residential, retail and service commercial, entertainment, cultural, business and institutional uses. Mixed use development is encouraged. Ultimately it is intended that Urban Core lands will become true mixed use urban areas. The primary focus of this development is along Trafalgar Road, with the north side of Dundas St. and the intersection of Neyagawa Boulevard and Burnhamthorpe Road having an important, but more secondary role.
7.3.3 RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBOURHOODS
ResidentialneighbourhoodsasdesignatedonFigureNOE1(Community Structurelan) are comprised of a range of residential densities including significant areas appropriate for ground related housing and live/work opportunities:
a) Neighbourhood Centre
Neighbourhood Centres are located in the centre of each neighbourhood, within walking distance of most residents. While predominately residential in character, Neighbourhood Centres will permit a range of uses. These uses will be permitted throughout the area but will be focused at a central activity node for the neighbourhood. Neighbourhood Centres have denser development than other parts of the neighbourhood but are predominantly ground related, and, in addition to residential development, will include a range of convenience and service commercial, civic, institutional and live-work functions in buildings at a scale and with a design appropriate to the area.
b) General Urban
General Urban areas, while predominately residential, also provide for live-work functions. Development will be at lower densities than those found in the Neighbourhood Centre.
c) Sub-urban
8
NORTH OAKVILLE EAST SECONDARY PLAN February, 2008
The least dense and most purely residential context is found in areas in a neighbourhood termed “Sub-urban”. While live-work functions are permitted, these areas are primarily residential in nature.
d) High Density Residential
Neighbourhood 14 on the west side of Sixteen Mile Creek shall include high density residential uses, which may be located adjacent to:
i) the valley of the Sixteen Mile Creek;
ii) other park or open space areas; or
iii) any road or roads within the Neighbourhood.
While the neighbourhood shall be predominantly residential in character, including live-work buildings, a range of non-residential uses shall also be permitted throughout the neighbourhood. These non-residential uses may include:
i) a range of convenience retail and service commercial uses,
ii) civic and institutional uses, and
iii) office uses
in buildings at a scale and with a design appropriate to the area. Both mixed use and single use buildings shall be permitted.
7.3.4 EMPLOYMENT DISTRICTS
Employment Districts refer to land designed to accommodate development of predominantly employment generating uses including a wide range of industrial and office development. Limited retail and service commercial uses designed to serve the businesses and employees will also be permitted within the Employment Districts.
7.3.5 NATURAL HERITAGE AND OPEN SPACE SYSTEM
The Natural Heritage and Open Space System for North Oakville East is part of a larger system which is intended to extend through all of North Oakville. It forms a central feature of the North Oakville East Planning Area. It is comprised of two components, a Natural Heritage component and an Open Space component.
a) The Natural Heritage component of the System is comprised of the following key areas as identified by the policies in the Plan:
9
NORTH OAKVILLE EAST SECONDARY PLAN February, 2008
i) Core Preserve Areas
The Core Preserve Areas include key natural features or groupings of key natural features, together with required buffers and adjacent lands intended to protect the function of those features and ensure the long term sustainability of the Natural Heritage component of the System within the urban context.
ii) Linkage and Optional Linkage Preserve Areas
Linkage and Optional Linkage Preserve Areas include areas which are designed to link the Core Preserve Areas together to maintain and enhance their environmental sustainability. They follow natural features whenever possible and are intended to be of sufficient size and character, including buffers, to ensure the functionality and sustainability of the Natural Heritage component of the System.
iii) High Constraint Stream Corridor Areas
High Constraint Stream Corridor Areas include certain watercourses and adjacent riparian lands, including buffers measured from the stable top-of- bank or meander belts. These areas are located primarily inside Core and Linkage Preserve Areas, but are also found outside such areas. They must be protected in their existing locations for hydrological and ecological reasons.
iv) Medium Constraint Stream Corridor Areas
Medium Constraint Stream Corridor Areas include certain watercourses and adjacent riparian lands, including buffers measured from the stable top-of-bank or meander belts. These areas are located primarily inside Core and Linkage Preserve Areas, but are also found outside such areas. They must be protected for hydrological and ecological reasons. These watercourses may be deepened and/or relocated in accordance with subsection 7.4.7.1 d).
v) Other Hydrological Features
In addition, to the High and Medium Constraint Stream Corridor Areas, a number of other hydrological features have been identified in North Oakville East. These features are also part of the Natural Heritage component of the Natural Heritage and Open Space System to the extent they are maintained after development occurs.
b) The Open Space component of the Natural Heritage and Open Space System includes open space areas such as stormwater facilities, cemeteries, public parks and schools. The Open Space component of the System will be designed, where possible, to connect to, and enhance the Natural Heritage component of the System.

7.3.6 POPULATION/HOUSING TARGETS 7.3.6.1 Population
The North Oakville East Planning Area capacity or ultimate population target, which may not be achieved within the 2021 planning period, is a population of between 45,000 and 55,000 at an overall density that equals or exceeds the requirements of the Halton Urban Structure Plan of 30 units per hectare on a net basis as defined in Section 7.10.13 of this Secondary Plan. The achievement of these targets on a yearly basis shall not be required, however, the Town will review the achievement of the targets every five years and will monitor on an annual basis. Further, the total population target which will be achieved in North Oakville will reflect the population target for North Oakville East in combination with the population target for North Oakville West established in the North Oakville West Secondary Plan. The total of these two targets will fulfill the population target of Official Plan Amendment No. 198.
7.3.6.2 Housing Mix Target
a) The housing unit mix targets for the ultimate development of North Oakville East, which may not be achieved within the 2021 planning period, are outlined below and for each density type a target range is provided. The achievement of a housing mix which lies between the target ranges on a yearly basis shall not be required, however, the Town will review the achievement of the targets every five years and will monitor on an annual basis. Any such review shall not result in a reduction of the population target contained in Section 7.3.6.1 or the population related component of the employment target. Sections 7.9.5.2 and 7.9.5.3 of this Plan set out the Monitoring Program and Monitoring Report requirements.
Low High
NORTH OAKVILLE EAST SECONDARY PLAN February, 2008
Low Density 55% Medium Density 25% High Density 20%

7.3.7 EMPLOYMENT TARGETS
NORTH OAKVILLE EAST SECONDARY PLAN February, 2008
Part C, Section 4 of the Official Plan establishes the Town’s general policies with respect to employment. The North Oakville East Secondary Plan has been designed to implement the direction of those policies, and in particular to:
a) achieve a balance both in type and quantity between local employment opportunities and the resident labour force;
b) actively encourage a diversification of employment opportunities in Oakville; and,
c) encourage the growth of industrial commercial assessment.
The employment target for North Oakville East reflects these directions and the background studies undertaken for this Secondary Plan which have resulted in a refinement to the targets for North Oakville identified in the North Oakville Strategic Land Use Options Study. The target is approximately 300 net hectares of employment land and 16,500 jobs at capacity, which may not be achieved within the 2021 planning period. This reflects a target of an average of 55 employees per net hectare. In addition, it is anticipated that there will be approximately 8,500 population related employees for a total target of 25,000 jobs at capacity. The achievement of these targets on a yearly basis shall not be required, however, the Town will review the achievement of the targets every five years and will monitor on an annual basis. Further, the total employment target which will be achieved in North Oakville will reflect the employment target for North Oakville East, in combination with the employment target for North Oakville West established in the North Oakville West Secondary Plan.
