Great Neighbourhoods Improvement Fund

These investments are made when the City of Edmonton is doing construction work in a neighbourhood such as neighbourhood renewal. This is an opportunity to coordinate work to maximize the investment and increase the livability of a neighbourhood.

As every neighbourhood is different, the investments made are unique to each neighbourhood.
