City aims to improve the situation
City council recently received a status update on its commercial land and how to march forward into the future from urbanMetrics.
Senior Project Manager Tywen Thomas presented the key findings. Namely, ideas on how to address the shortfall of commercial land Kingston is seeing with its continued growth.
To accommodate the projected market growth of the city by 2051, Kingston requires 57.4 hectares of commercial land. urbanMetrics says they can make up over half of it with underutilized sites now, but face a shortfall of 26.2 hectares.
