Help Plan a Sustainable Subdivision in Fredericton – September 17-18

[Greg LeBlanc]

Interested in a more sustainable approach to neighbourhood
development? Ever wanted to be part of a subdivision that is a
healthy, happy place to connect with neighbours and the environment?
Then come take part in this workshop opportunity on sustainable
subdivision planning.

One Tree Orchard is a vision and plan for a sustainable subdivision.
It is located on a family-owned, 360 acre plot of land bordering
Fredericton’s city limits and the Saint John River. This is the first
such project of its kind in the Fredericton area, so it can play a key
role in encouraging other developers to become sustainable.

This project has been developing for over a year, with some aspects
already planned out – wastewater and storm water management, and
conservation areas. However, many other areas have yet to be defined –
a community energy scheme, building design, housing ownership, and
approaches to forestry and agriculture to meet residents’ needs.

This workshop will be an opportunity to become informed about the work
that has already taken place for One Tree Orchard, and to become
engaged in the areas of planning that have yet to be defined. Your
values and voice matter, and can help make this project a success.
Experts will be presenting to guide discussion and work with
participants to provide feedback and ideas for the project.
Participant ideas will be used to guide planning for One Tree Orchard.

The workshop will take place on the afternoon of Friday, September
17th and all day Saturday, September 18th. The workshop will be held
at the site of future development - 3606 route 102 hwy.
