Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Zero Main Inc. is embarking on an eco-friendly development project for a 1/4 acre property located by a picturesque stream in Alton, Ontario. The goal is to design a layout that allows visitors to fully experience the natural beauty of the area while adhering to environmental regulations. The property is situated in a flood plain, necessitating clearances from local governing authorities. Students will need to apply their knowledge of environmental science, urban planning, and communication skills to navigate municipal guidelines and regulations. The project involves site visits, research, and direct communication with local government agencies and potential contractors. The ultimate aim is to create a sustainable, visitor-friendly space that aligns with Zero Main Inc.'s eco-friendly mission.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

- Research and documentation of local bylaws and environmental regulations relevant to the property development.

- Weekly progress reports detailing correspondence with local authorities and research findings.

- On-site meetings with potential contractors to discuss eco-friendly construction options.

- Compilation of a final report summarizing all research, communications, and recommendations for the property layout.
