Economic Development

Pedestrian Summer Access Area Review, Economic Development-2020-06

As a result of the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act from the Provincial Government due to the Covid-19 Pandemic in the spring of 2020, many businesses across our Municipality suffered incredible financial loss. In order to support economic development, physical distancing and public health restrictions, Queen Street was closed to vehicles from North of Durham Market Street North, to Lambton Street, from Friday 5 PM to Sunday 9 PM, from the beginning of July 4th to September 7th, 2020.

After further survey of stakeholders, public consultation and additional support received via resolution from the Kincardine BIA Board, it is further recommended that Queen Street be closed from Friday 5 PM to Sunday 9 PM, from the beginning of June 25th to September 5th, 2021, from North of Durham Market Street North, to Lambton Street.

Return to In-Person Meetings, Clerk's-2020-13

On March 30, 2020, the Procedure By-law was amended to allow Council and Committee meetings to be held electronically during a declared emergency. Since that time, meetings have been held by teleconference or by video conference through Zoom. Although, this process has been successful and effective in moving the business of the Municipality forward, Staff have investigated moving back to in person meetings.

Staff are providing an overview of what in-person meetings would entail, the need to continue hybrid in-person/electronic participation meetings to ensure all participants continue to have the opportunity to be involved, procedures and costs.
