The City of Sarnia has initiated the preparation of an affordable / attainable housing Community Improvement Plan (CIP). The Plan is intended to promote the development of affordable / attainable housing by assisting and stimulating the private sector through the use of financial incentives as authorized by the Planning Act. The CIP is a tool that supports the development of a range of housing options in the City and also supports the County of Lambton in the delivery of affordable housing.

What is a Community Improvement Plan?

Community Improvement Plans (CIP) are strategic financial investment tools used by communities to stimulate and support key community outcomes. These plans are designed to leverage targeted public capital investments through a suite of grant offerings, with the intent to encourage private investment in specific and defined community outcomes.

Study Area?

The study area for the CIP is city-wide, however, specific programs and incentives may be targeted to areas targeted for growth and intensification in the City's Official Plan.

Public Input Opportunities

Help us better understand the housing needs of the community by completing the short survey below before noon on March 30.

Further in-person engagement will be available during a Statutory Public Meeting later this year.
