This program includes residential revitalization and neighbourhood business development.
The City of Edmonton is committed to improving the livability of Edmonton's neighbourhoods and the lives of the people who live, work, visit and play in them.
The City is investing in the physical and social infrastructure of neighbourhoods, working with residents to support their efforts to create the place they want their neighbourhood to be, working across City departments and improving collaboration with other organizations to deliver neighbourhood services more efficiently.
The City worked with residents in 21 neighbourhoods and invested approximately $36 million in enhancements that complement work done to improve roads and drainage.
From entrance signage and public art to improved landscaping, lighting and walking paths, these investments advance community-led visions and increase the neighbourhoods' attractiveness to visitors, residents and investors.
The City also invested in buying and improving neighbourhood properties that will add to the area's revitalization.
