Completely revised and enhanced, the CLS is an indispensable tool to the success of any landscape project that is designed, built and maintained to this nationally recognized standard.
Good planning, building, and maintenance of outdoor spaces is critical to protecting your investment in green infrastructure from the roots up.
The Canadian Landscape Standard is a resource which defines good landscape construction practices. It should be used by land developers, parks staff, landscape architects, landscape contractors and the building industry.
Based on the highly successful British Columbia Landscape Standard, the CLS has been in use since the first edition launched in 2016.
It is a single, authoritative resource for landscape construction projects across Canada. The CLS is a national guideline which establishes the standard of landscape work in every province across the country. Most importantly, the CLS supports sustainable design, green infrastructure and climate adaptation.
