Community Improvement Plan
The Township of Centre Wellington is taking innovative steps to encourage growth in the Township through the development of incentives aimed at local and out-of-town investors. The Community Improvement Plan (CIP) will put Centre Wellington at the leading edge of providing incentives to developers to stimulate development in the community.
The Centre Wellington Community Improvement Program Guidelines can be found here.
A Community Improvement Plan (CIP) is a planning and economic development tool that establishes a framework for future municipal projects. It encourages private sector investment within key areas of the Township. The CIP Grant Program is administered by the Township’s Economic Development Office.
The goals and objectives of the Township’s updated CIP are to address:
The CIP Grant Program is designed to focus on improvement projects that go above and beyond regular maintenance and repair to a property, and meet as many of the program goals as possible. Repairs and maintenance relate directly to wear and tear or damage or maintenance of property whereas an improvement makes something better than it was originally or provides something in a new and more valuable form.
Applications for all incentive programs will be reviewed by the Community Improvement Implementation Committee on a first-come, first-served basis.
General requirements for all program streams of the Centre Wellington Community Improvement Plan can be found here.
The Urban Design Guidelines (UDG) will be a key implementation instrument for the Community Improvement Plan. They will provide a framework of principles and guidelines that will provide design direction for the development, redevelopment and enhancement of buildings, facades, streetscapes, public open spaces and natural areas.
