Landscape Plan

Landscape Design for Ontario Site Plan Approvals

We prepare landscape plans that satisfy municipal requirements, enhance site aesthetics, and support tree preservation and environmental commitments.

Why It Matters

Why a Landscape Plan Is Required

Most Ontario municipalities require a landscape plan as a condition of Site Plan Approval. A well-prepared plan demonstrates compliance with tree preservation by-laws, urban canopy targets, and the landscape buffering requirements of local zoning.

Municipal Compliance

Meets the landscape and tree preservation conditions of Site Plan Approval and local zoning by-laws.

Tree Preservation

Documents existing trees, protection zones, and replacement planting to satisfy the municipality's urban canopy requirements.

Buffering & Screening

Provides landscape buffers between uses and along property lines as required by zoning and site plan conditions.

Coordinated Design

Landscape is coordinated with grading, servicing, and lighting plans for a fully integrated submission.
