What is the Growth Community Improvement Plan?
The City's new Growth Community Improvement Plan (GCIP) is designed to help grow and improve the community through targeted city wide programming for housing, industrial, downtown and waterfront projects.
Community Improvement Plans provide municipalities with tools under the Planning Act and Municipal Act to create opportunity in return for private sector investments and developments which improve the community.
