A Community Improvement Plan (CIP) is a planning and economic development tool that sets out a framework to assist in community revitalization and aims to achieve economic, community planning and urban development goals. Community Improvement Plans provide many community benefits by:
- Stimulating private sector investment in the community through grants and loans from the Municipality;
- Promoting revitalization and place-making to attract tourism, business investment and economic development opportunities;
- Developing affordable housing;
- Promoting brownfield cleanup and redevelopment;
- Enhancing streetscapes and building facades;
- Encouraging the effective use of community infrastructure.
Businesses and property owners considering participation in the CIP are encouraged to review the full program details linked below. All applicants are required to meet with Municipal staff for a pre-application meeting, with the exception of applicants to the COVID-19 Business Retrofit Grant.
