Event Details:
The Township is holding an Open House to gather your input on the Draft Community Improvement Plan. The purpose of the Open House is to provide an opportunity to review the draft document, ask questions, and provide feedback on the proposed updates.
What is a Community Improvement Plan?
A Community Improvement Plan (CIP) is a municipal tool to create financial incentives (ie. Grants, loans, or rebates) for private landowners or organizations to take on improvement projects. Improvement can take the form of construction, converting old to new uses, maintenance and repair, or rehabilitation of buildings or land. This is the Township’s first CIP.
The draft CIP would apply to all lands within the Township’s municipal boundary and includes:
- A summary of the goals and objectives of the CIP program, including the types of improvement which are eligible;
- An incentive (grants and rebates) program related to housing, environmental sustainability, redevelopment of brownfield sites, support for small, new, or scaling businesses, tourism and place-making;
- Terms and eligibility requirements to qualify for incentives within the CIP;
- An outline of the process and application procedures;
- An overview of how the Township will implement and monitor the CIP over time.
