Downtown Chilliwack is the historical centre of our community and plays a large role in the fond memories of many.
As we all know, there are no fast and simple solutions to the challenges of renewing a city centre.
Achieving our shared vision for Downtown Chilliwack is not one that can be accomplished by government alone. It will require a collaborative effort from our entire community.
A Vision for Downtown Chilliwack
“A healthy, sustainable, and thriving community that promotes social and economic vitality while minimizing its impact on the natural environment.
Downtown Chilliwack is a community of distinct and vibrant urban neighbourhoods that offer a wide range of opportunities to live, work, learn and play. It is safe, inclusive, socially diverse and supported by a diverse range of housing options that embrace a high quality and attractive public realm.
The heart of downtown is distinguished by its unique heritage character and its civic, entertainment, and shopping focus, and will continue to be a cornerstone of civic pride and community identity.”
