Jim Garbutt
Relating to Report PLAN2018-063 (Item 7.1 on the Agenda)

Mr. Garbutt spoke as an independent business person, and stated that he had reviewed the Community Improvement Plan document and presentation and thought it was well crafted. He expressed three concerns including, the appropriateness of locating pop-up shops in downtown Lindsay and that locating them along the waterfront could help revitalize that area, creating equal opportunity low-income, mid and high end housing options for 2nd and 3rd floor renovations where a mix of affordability contributes to a healthy and complete community, and opportunities for change of use of 2nd and 3rd floor spaces in the downtowns. He also emphasized the importance of consultation opportunities with the BIA, Chambers and other stakeholders as the CIP moves forward. He responded to questions from the members of the committee.
