Vision Vanier

Vision Vanier is an umbrella initiative aimed at providing a coordinated communications and engagement approach to city projects for residents, businesses, community associations and other key stakeholders. The goal of Vision Vanier is to raise awareness, share information, gather feedback and affect positive change.

There are six (6) key city projects under the Vision Vanier umbrella:

• Building Better Revitalized Neighbourhoods Vanier
• Montreal Road Community Improvement Plan
• Montreal Road Revitalization
• Vanier: Culture in Action
• Vanier Public Art Program
• Riverain Park Improvements

Through coordinated land use planning, arts, culture and heritage, economic development and infrastructure initiatives, the City will support revitalization and improve the livability and cultural vibrancy in Vanier. Vision Vanier will aim to support the life and work of artists in Vanier, revitalize the heritage, cultural and creative sector and create a more vibrant, prosperous and desirable business community along Montreal Road.

Public engagement opportunities

City staff will be in the community over the next year asking residents, business owners, property owners, the Business Improvement Area (BIA), cultural groups and others for their opinions and ideas on a variety of plans, policies and programs. Our efforts to solicit feedback will include:

• Public Information Sessions and Open Houses
• Working Group sessions
• Online Surveys
• Pamphlets and brochures

We encourage everyone to join the conversation and help define the future of the Vanier community. Keep an eye on this page – you can find out all the details on upcoming Vision Vanier engagements here.  Visit our Engage Ottawa site.
