Community Development
Community Development is about the active involvement of people in the issues which affect their lives. It is a process based on the sharing of skills, knowledge and experience.
Community Development is a multi-faceted approach aimed at identifying and addressing the shared needs within a community and to ultimately foster growth.
Victoria County has many vibrant and engaged communities, and our efforts in Community Development will involve facilitating engagement sessions to identify common goals and to support community organizations in their efforts to activate development initiatives. Currently, our team is working on a Community Placemaking project. For more information on what is placemaking and the planned events for this project follow this link.
What’s Happening in Community Development:
Signage and Wayfinding Community Consultations
The Municipality of the County of Victoria is developing a new Signage and Wayfinding Plan—and we want your input! We’re inviting residents, business owners, and visitors to share their experiences and ideas about finding their way around our community. 6 in-person community consultations are happening soon across the county. Your feedback will help us identify what’s working, what’s not, and where improvements are needed. For those unable to attend, we invite you to share your feedback through our online survey.
