The Town is preparing a Community Improvement Plan (CIP) to advance certain key economic development and community revitalization priorities within Innisfil. CIPs are action-oriented tools that encourage landowners and businesses to undertake different types of projects that contribute to community revitalization and economic development. CIPs are prepared in accordance with Section 28 of Ontario’s Planning Act and are commonly used by municipalities throughout Ontario.

The Town’s new CIP will offer financial incentives to eligible landowners and businesses to encourage investment in revitalization and support economic growth. This is anticipated to include incentive programs that aim to attract new businesses, grow existing businesses, and attract investment into strategic areas of the Town, such as Downtown Alcona and Innisfil Heights, for example.

Your input is important to ensure the CIP is responsive to the needs of the community and that it is aligned with the Town’s revitalization and broader economic development goals.

You are invited to participate in the development of the CIP. Engagement will take place throughout the duration of the Project, with different opportunities to be directly involved. The Town looks forward to consulting with community members, business owners, and key stakeholders to share key findings and updates about the Project, and to present and gather feedback on the proposed financial incentive programs.

Notifications about upcoming ways to be involved will be provided on this webpage. We encourage you to stay up to date by subscribing to project updates and regularly checking the timeline section for additional information on engagement events. Your perspective and input will help shape the Town’s priorities for the Community Improvement Plan!
