The Township of King joined the other 10 Ontario municipalities implementing a Green Development Standard (GDS). GDS is crucial for municipalities striving to achieve net-zero goals as it provides a structured framework for advancing the sustainability of new developments. By advancing energy-efficient and low carbon in development applications right from the beginning of the planning process, these standards reduce environmental impact and contribute significantly to lowering carbon emissions, essential steps in the journey towards a net-zero future. In this webinar, we heard from Aloma Dreher, senior planner in the Township of King, on their GDS efforts and plans for King Township’s update to their GDS to better enable them to achieve their climate and sustainability commitments.
