Development Review Committee reports busy year

 

The Development Review Committee says Thompson is undergoing significant re-investment in businesses, owned by Thompsonites.

 

In their report to council on Monday night, the committee noted that 2015 has been a busy year, highlighting noteworthy projects such as 

the new co-op gasbar and convenience store, the new youth crisis centre, and Ecole Communautaire La Voie du Nord.

 

The report outlined strategic initiatives that will be continued into next year, which includes accelerating the process of the Yale-Newman development, and re-visiting Thompson’s zoning by-law to implement tools that will attract investment to the City.

 

The City will also be rolling out a new transportation branding initiative. “Thompson on the Move!” will be launched next year. The goal is to ensure that the multi-use path system, pedestrian renewal program, and road renewal projects are packaged in one long term strategy.

 

The report noted that new developments in addition to re-investments in current businesses are indicators that Thompson is a city worth investing in.
