City hall is at 38 Hill Street and the sessions will be in Room 220. 

Each session is scheduled for two hours, with at least one hour being dedicated to a question-and-answer period. The content of each session will be tailored to the needs and interests of each audience identified on the schedule, which is outlined below. 

The sessions will be presented by the City’s UDC consultant, Lee Einsweiler with Code Studios, and the city’s consultant for the Design Guidelines process, Noré Winter with Winter & Company. Staff from the the city's Community Development Department will also be present.
