The Draft CIP has been developed by assessing our community infrastructure needs, identifying gaps, and understanding the requirements of our growing and diverse population.

Our approach is based on best practices, industry standards, and trends, along with valuable input from the community and other stakeholders.

This assessment has been further guided by the Community Infrastructure Planning Principles and Provision Standards, which were endorsed by the Council at the December 2024 Ordinary Council Meeting.

To help shape the Draft CIP, the City ran several engagement activities from November to December 2024 to get a feel for what our community needs, where the gaps are, and what the priorities should be.

Around 270 people got involved and shared their thoughts through:

• A community survey

• A survey for specific facility user groups

• In-person focus group meetings

• One-on-one stakeholder meetings

Thank you to everyone that took the time to provide feedback.
