Get Involved
We’re doing something different in Barrie — people-first planning for change in
our older neighbourhoods. This is your chance to shape your historic neighbourhood.
Thank you to everyone who gave their time and offered their thoughts at our Neighbourhood
Workshops and filled in one of our Neighbourhood Survey as part of our Visioning
phase to this project in February. The Workshop Notes and the
Survey Results are now available.
We have now also completed an update to Council and invite you to take a look at
the presentation . We are
now moving toward drafting the Strategy and we expect to have a Draft to release
for comments and feedback this Spring.
