What exactly is a Community Improvement Plan? A powerful tool for Ontario municipalities to enable the provision of financial incentives directly to property owners to encourage property upgrades and improve economic vitality within a designated area.
The specific objectives of the Integrated Orléans Community Improvement Plan are:
- Urban Renewal and Revitalization - Stimulate private investment - Encourage highest and best use - Add variety to business mix - Job growth - Pedestrian-friendly, healthy vibrant streets
To fulfill the Integrated Orléans Community Plan, staff recommend to terminate the existing by-law for St.Joseph Boulevard Community Improvement Plan and the Orléans Community Plan, and that Council approve and adopt by By-law the Integrated Orléans Improvement Plan.
Program Goals:
Combine successful elements of both existing CIPs; the Orléans CIP & St. Joseph Blvd CIP
Eliminate confusion and overlap between two existing Orléans CIPs
Provide new tools to instill added vigor to the Orléans businesses and main streets
Encourage rehabilitation, redevelopment, and revitalization of the existing built environment and built-form aesthetics and urban design goals
Address job creation needs
Foster vibrant activity and breathe new life along the area’s main streets and pedestrian/cyclist thoroughfares including those streets that will provide access to the four new LRT stations
Encourage high-rise developments (where permitted) to develop ground floor rental space exclusively for sidewalk-oriented ground floor active uses to promote an active pedestrian and cyclist environment
The proposed timeline is:
6 July, 2021: Finance and Economic Development Committee
25 August, 2021 : Council for Program Approval
8 September, 2021 : Council Enact By-laws
15 September, 2021 : Formal Notice of By-law enactment
15 Sept. to 5 Oct., 2021 - 20-day appeal period before by-law is in force
