The Ottawa-Carleton LEAR System, originally developed in 1997, is now updated to incorporate current soil and land use information. A number of the new LEAR factors have also been updated. The Ottawa Land Evaluation and Area Review for Agriculture (LEAR) report has two volumes:
• LEAR Volume 1 contains a description of the LEAR system and how properties are scored.
• LEAR Volume 2 contains LEAR data for each scored property.
Land owners may use the LEAR map to easily search for their property and see the new LEAR scoring or you can download a printable Map (PDF)

Ottawa continues to see urban intensification and a continued interest in urban living. Ottawa's intensification policies have largely been successful in directing and realizing changes within areas targeted for intensification such as within mixed use centres and along mainstreets.
However, established communities continue to face challenges in ensuring that change and intensification is compatible with the existing fabric and character. The R4 Zoning Review follows several recent zoning studies aimed at ensuring more compatible infill and intensification in established low-rise neighborhoods in the urban area.
Read our discussion paper. Please send us your comments and questions by Friday, December 16, 2016.
