Downtown Development



In 2006 and 2016, the City initiated a Downtown Development Strategy. Cumulatively, the Strategies identified the enduring and systematic challenges facing the downtown and suggested that a number of important initiatives ranging from streetscape to waterfront improvements be pursued.

The Strategies support the transformation of the downtown into a vibrant and mixed use neighbourhood, which serve as a centre for entertainment, cultural, and retail experience, with a relatively greater degree of accessibility and mobility.

Both Strategies also encompassed the creation of a Downtown Community Improvement Plan (DCIP) in 2007, 2014, and as recently as July 2018, which established the grant programs.
