TOWN OF KINCARDINE
PROPOSED COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT PLAN
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this plan is to guide the community
improvement process in the Town of Kincardine. This plan
outlines the Town of Kincardine's goals and objectives for
communi ty improvement, the cr iter ia that is used for the
selection of the community improvement area, description of
proposed improvements, the phas ing of these improvements
and the method of implementation.
This plan has been prepared on the basis of interviews with
town staff. boards and committees. reviews of available
pertinent studies, input from community service
organizations and windshield surveys. From these sources
a list of potential improvements has been prepared.
With an ever increasing demand on the public treasury for
greater spending to upgrade public facilities a program of
planned community improvement is required to make the most
efficient use of available public funds. The principal
behind developing a community improvement plan includes
local public initiatives that are oriented towards economic
development or redevelopment, strengthening the local tax
base, and ensuring cost effective public spending. As a
result the community improvement policies and plans act as
a guide for decisions on municipal expenditures and the land
use planning process in Kincardine. Several advantages for
a comprehensive community improvement plan become apparent,
including :
1) A comprehensive plan which can be referenced by council
for priorizing projects and funding for various groups
during the annual preparation of the municipal budget;
2) A comprehensive plan facilitates the scheduling of
improvements in an orderly fashion to ensure a high
degree of efficiency in terms of maximizing public
benefits, minimizing costs and ensuring that all
components of an improvement project have been
included; and
3) Improving the municipality's chances of successfully
applying and receiving funds from provincial and
federal departments for the proposed communi ty
improvement projects in this municipality.

The purpose of this plan is hiQ-fold. Firstly. it
inventories existing characteristics of Kincardine, its
population. housing. land use. deficiencies and its economy.
Secondly, it will identify features. areas or projects which
require improvements in some manner and consequently can be
considered as an appropriate Community Improvement project.
The Town of Kincardine is located on the eastern shores of
Lake Huron in the southwes tern corner of Bruce County.
(Figure 1). The Town of Kincardine covers an area of
approximately 769 hectares (1900 acres) and in 1986 had a
population of 5,850 persons. Access to Kincardine is by
means of two Provincial Highways. Highway No. 21 which
provides access from the north and south and Highway No. 9
which provides access from the east.
Municipalities adjacent to the Town of Kincardine are Huron
Township to the south and Kincardine Township to the east
and north. The Town of Kincardine acts as the focus for
commercial, recreational and cultural acti vi ties in
southwestern Bruce County.

and 1986 the Town of Kincardine's population increased by
1.3% or 75 people. In each census year since 1966,
Kincardine has witnessed a growth in population and the
increase in 1986 is a continuation of this trend. however
it lS the smallest lncrease since 1986. The To,,¡n of
Kincardine accounts for 9.9% of Bruce County's total
population.
In the intervening five years between 1981 and 1986, changes
have occurred to the size of each age group in Kincardine
(Table 1). In Kincardine, the age groups which have
experienced an increase in their population, were the
elementary school (5 - 14), established labour force (35-
54) and senior citizens (65 +) age groups. The largest
increase was accounted for by the established labour force
age group (21.7%). Conversely, infants (0-4), secondary
school (15-19) and new labour force entrants (20-34) age
groups all experience reduction in their populations, with
the new labour force entrants recording the largest decrease

BUILDING ACTIVITY
Changes to building stock for each municipality can be
measured mainly through building permit activity (Table 51.
In Kincardine, since 1985, only three types of new dwellings
have been issued building permits. These three types were
single detached units, mobile homes and apartment unl ts.
Since 1985, 85 residential permits were issued for new
single detached dwellings Wl th over one-half (56 I being
issued in 1988. This represents an average of
approximately 21 new single detached permits being issued
every year since 1985. The other growing part of
Kincardine's housing stock results from permits issued for
a 30 unit apartment building in 1988 and 3 permits issued
for mobile homes issued in 1985. The number of permits
issued for new commercial and industrial purposes generally
increased from 1985 to 1988. In this intervening time
period, 10 commercial and 7 industrial building permits were
issued; with 5 of the commercial and 2 of the industrial
permits being issued in 1988.
A common measure of the intensity of the building activity
is the estimated value of all types of permits which
includes new construction as well as renovation and
additions. In 1985 the estimated value of building permits
was approximately $2.5 million In 1986 the value of
building activity declined to $1.7 million, however in 1987
and 1988 the value of building increased significantly to
$4.2 million in 1987 and tripled to $12.5 million in 1988.
3.5 BUILDING CONDITIONS
.
The following observations on building conditions have been
made. The commercfal buildings stock in Kincardine is
generally in good condition with a wide variety of styles
emphasized. Newer commercial buildings are located north
of the established Central Business District and along
Broadway and Kincardine Ave. Generally these newer
buildings are in good to excellent condition however. the
few older commercial buildings in these areas are in average
to good condition. In the Central Business District many
of the buildings were built in the late 19th century and
early 20th century. These buildings which are located
primarily along Queen Street are in average to good
condition. The types of improvement to commercial buildings
along Queen Street that may be required include updating and
maintenance of facades and other exterior features of these
stores.

Res idential hous ing stock \,;hich can be di v ided in to t,w
distinct groups. The pre-19ìO development. ~hich includes the
original homes in the town. and post-I970 era. ~hich includes
most of the homes developed as a result of rapid expansion of
the Bruce ~uclear Power Development. As a result much of the
area east of Park St., north of Mechanics Ave. and south of
Kincardine Ave. have been built since the 19ìO's and generally
the condition of these buildings are good to excellent. In
the post 1970's areas of Kincardine, approximately 20% of
residences are in excellent condi tion, 75% are in good and 25%
are in average condi tion (Minis try of Revenue Assessment Data,
1988). Whereas the older residential neighbourhood in the
town the majori ty of the residences are in good condition
however the likelihood of homes needing improvements both
cosmetic and structural is greater. In the pre 1970's. areas
of Kincardine approximately 4% of residences were in excellent
condition while 51%, 38%, 6% and 1% are in good, average, fair
and poor condition respectively (Ministry of Revenue.
Assessment Data, 1988).
The institutional buildings in the town are also generally in
good condition. although the Town Hall needs renovations to
improve space, usage and exterior of the building. The
Li brary, also in good condi tion, requires more space to
display it's collection as well as making the building
accessible to the handicapped. The Davidson Centre building
has been well maintained, but the grounds surrounding the
building require improvements such as paving of parking lot,
and interior improvements such as air conditioning and
replacement of fans.
3.6 AVAILABILITY OF RESIDENTIAL, COMMERCIAL & INDUSTRIAL LANDS
The reserve of residential land is made up of lots available
in approved, draft and proposed plans of subdivisions and
lands designated for residential use in the Town of
Kincardine's Official Plan. In January of 1988, in Kincardine
there were approximately 137 single detached building lots
available (Table 6). This estimate includes lots in existing
approved Plans of Subdivision and potential infilling lots in
the established parts of the Town of Kincardine. In addi tion,
there is approximately 327 lots in approved Plans of
Subdivision which are awaiting installation of municipal
services. There are no draft plans of subdivision in
Kincardine. Proposals for residential plans of subdivision
on 8.5 hectares (21 acres) have been drafted for Kincardine.
Finally, an additional 36 hectares (90 acres) of vacant land
has been designated in the Kincardine Official Plan for
residential purposes. It should be noted that most of these
lands lie along the Penetangore River and therefore

would be more difficult and pOSSIbly more expensIve to
develop.
Vacant land designated Commercial and Industrial in the Town's
Official Plan represents the Town's potential for expansion
of commercial and industrial activities. In 1988. 166 acres
(63 hectares) of land designated for industrial purposes were
vacant; while 23 acres (9.3 hectares) of land were designated
for highway commercial use in the Official Plan. Of the 23
acres of Highway Commercial land, approximately 5 acres 15
being considered for development at the time of writing of
this report. There were no vacant lands des i gna ted for
General Commercial purposes in the Town's core area. The
majority of the vacant industrial and highway commercial lands
in the Town of Kincardine are located in the southeast portion
of the Town.
Finally. interest has been shown for redevelopment of the
Kincardine Harbour area and a study enti t led .. Small Craf t
Harbour Fac il i ty Study. Kincardine Ontario" (Johnson,
Sustronk, Weinstein and Associates, 1985) outlined a proposed
development plan for the Harbour Area. In the harbour area
a 2.8 hectare parcel of vacant land has been included in these
development plans.
Land Use
Figure 2 illustrates the types and locations of the six
principal uses of land in Kincardine as well as the spacial
relationship between these uses. The dominant use of land in
the Town of Kincardine is for residential purposes. Most of
the residential land contains single family dwellings. hm,¡ever
3 and 4 storey walk-up apartment buildings and townhouse
developments can be found in the newer parts of Kincardine
that were developed after 1970. Post 1970 development can be
found in areas generally east of Park Street and north of
Mechanics Avenue.
The Town's central commercial area is approximately 2 blocks
in width and straddles Queen Street from the Penetangore River
north to Broadway Street. All other commercial areas
including the central commercial area lie on the former
Highway No. 21 route. The remaining commercial areas except
for Sutton Park Mall tend to be used for highway commercial
purposes, while the Sutton Park Mall in the northeast corner
of the Town provides a wide range of commercial services.

The Town's Industrial Park is located in the south end of
Kincardine south of Bruce Street and east of Penetangore Row.
Institutional uses which include municipal buildings. schools
and recreation facili ties are scattered around Kincardine "i th
their locations determined by the need and availability of
land for the proposed institutional use. The large
institutional block of land in the south end of Kincardine
contains the Town's sewage lagoons, sanitary landfill site and
a cemetery.
Open Space use which includes both parkland and hazard lands
tend to be located along the Penetangore River or one of its
tributaries and along the Lake Huron Shore. Finally. the
bulk of vacant lands are located in the southeast part of the
Town. roughly defined as the area east of Park Street and
south of the Penetangore River.
3,8 ECONOMIC ACTIVITY
Kincardine's labour force increases by 3.3% so that in 1986,
Kincardine had a 2,640 member labour force (Table ì). The
principal labour force activities are service, manufacturing,
trade and communication and utility industries. These four
industrial activities encompasses approximately 84% of the
work force. The largest component, service industries.
accounted for 23.3% of the labour force. For clarification,
service industries includes such activities as services to
business, education and health services, accommodation food
and beverage services, amusement and recreation services and
personal services. Communication and uti Ii ties industries
would include the employees of the Bruce Nuclear Power
Development and trade industries includes the wholesale and
retail trade outlets.
Changes which have occurred to the Kincardine labour force
since 1981 were:
1. That only communication and utility industries decreased
in the size of their labour force;
2. Service. manufacturing and trade industries experienced
an increase in the size of their labour force; and
3.
In terms of rank by labour force size, manufacturing
risen significantly, 656% and in 1986 ranked 2nd
compared to its 7th place ranking in 1981.
In Kincardine, the principal economic activities which drive
Kincardine's economy are tourism, the BNPD and manufacturing.
A superficial examination of each of these three sectors is
included below.

TOURIS"l
A Study entitled "Tourlsm Development Strategy and Action
Plan for County of Bruce, Owen Sound and Sorth Grey" noted
that :
.
the tourism industry is expected to
become the largest industry in North Grey
and Bruce long before the year 2000.
Compared to agriculture and manufacturing,
which are likely to show very little growth.
the tourist sector continues to enjoy a long
term sectoral growth pattern as a result of
increasing disposable income as well as
changing life styles and values in our
society. .,
(Economic Planning Group, 1981, Page 1)
In Kincardine and surrounding area in 198ì, it was estimated
that approximately 133,000 people visited Kincardine and its
surrounding area and spent approximately $10.5 Million
(Ministry of Tourism and Recreation, 1987).
BRUCE NUCLEAR POWER DEVELOPMENT
The Bruce Nuclear Power Development is a major employer in
Kincardine and for most of the south Bruce lakeshore
municipalities. In 1988. 959 of the Bruce Nuclear Power
Deve lopment 3,771 employees res ided in Kincardine.
Forecasts by Ontario Hydro estimate that manpower will
increase to 4,500 by the end of 1989 and remain at this
level until 1993.
MANUFACTURING
There are few manufacturing establishments in Kincardine,
however the development of the Bruce Energy Centre is
expected to draw high energy consumption industries and that
some spinoff industrial and commercial development will
locate in the Town of Kincardine. By 1997 the anticipated
labour force at the Bruce Energy Centre is estimated at
2,200 with a further increase to 3,100 by the year 2005
(Ontario Hydro 1981).

RECREATION FACILITIES
.
The focus of recreational activities for the majority of the
residents in the lakeshore municipalities of southwestern
Bruce County is the Town of Kincardine. The orientation to
Kincardine is due in part to the presence of such facilities
as Davidson Communi ty Centre. Kincardine Li brary, sports
facilities at Connaught Park and Davidson Centre, Kincardine
Harbour, public beaches and private club facilities such as
Legion Hall. These facilities provide a range of sporting
and social opportunities. In addition, smaller recreational
facilities, such neighbourhood parks, ball diamonds or
meeting rooms can be found throughout the town.
In 1982, the Town of Kincardine completed its Culture and
Recreation Master Plan. The following conclusions have been
taken from the Background Report and relate use of and need
for recreation and cultural facilities in the Town:
"that the land resources are plentiful
particularly at the neighbourhood level. and
no need exists to acquire more land except
for special purposes such as the river
valleys or CNR lands;
that the beach areaS

COMMERCIAL SERVICES
The Town of Kincardine contains the bulk of the commercial
services found in southwestern Bruce County. The extent of
commercial facilities include downtown shopping facilities,
banking and other financial facilities, legal offices.
automotive sales and service centres, accommodation
establishments and entertainment facilities. In addition
to the downtown business district the Sutton Park Mall
contains a number of commercial businesses and is located
in the northeast part of the town. The role of Kincardine
as a centre for commerce is growing as evidenced by the
expansion of the Central Business District northward along
Queen Street and establishment of commercial enterprises
along Hwy. 21.

discussions with Town staff and the rev iew of
studies and reports a wide range of deficiencies
identified and are outlined in Tables 8 & 9 and
The main commercial area, which runs along Queen street,
from Durham Market north to Mechanics Avenue, is still a
strong and vital part of the Town. Along with the Mall in
the northeast part of Kincardine, the commercial sector
functions as a service centre for the greater surrounding
area. To maintain the attractiveness and vitality of the
commercial core, improvements to some aspects of the
physical facilities and amenities in the area are required.
The area along Queen Street requires beautification
improvements to the streetscape, such as planters benches.
landscaping, sidewalks etc. ~Iany downtown buildings have
already undergone facade improvements. but there are still
more buildings that require improvements. The Town of
Kincardine, like many small towns, has inherited a downtown
parking problem.
The original lot layout combined with the current needs of
commercial businesses makes provision of on site parking
difficult in many instances. Downtown off street parking
is currently provided by a large municipal lot located on
the east side of Queen Street in the south end of the
Central Business District. With increases in commercial
development northward along Queen Street this existing
municipal lot is inadequate to meet the demand and too
remote to provide parking facilities to commercial
establishments located along Queen Street north. It is not
possible to increase the amount of on-street parking without
downgrading the functionality of Queen Street. and as the
Central Business District continues to grOl'¡, this parking
problem will Worsen.
Related to the strengthening of the commercial core is the
development of a business park to facilitate diversification
of the economic base of the Town. In 1988 there were six
industrial establishments in Kincardine which employed
approximately 51 persons. To attract industrial enterprises
to Kincardine which mayor may not be related to industries
locating in the Bruce Energy Centre, the Town requires
industrial land which has the services, access and image
modern industrial businesses require.

Pedestrian safe tv and comfort is of particular concern in
the downtown and residential areas of the Town. Sections
of the sidewalks in the downtown area are in poor condition
and require replacing or upgrading. In many of the newer
res idential areas, sidewalks are not present and in the
older neighbourhoods either sidewalks are present and
require upgrading or sidewalks are not present. The Town
of Kincardine annually upgrades or builds sidewalks in
various locations in the Town. The addition of stop lights
at the intersection of Queen Street and Broadway Street has
contributed greatly to pedestrian safety in the commercial
core. Related to pedestrian safety and convenience is the
Town's program of annually replacing old street lights with
new high pressure sodium lights. The pre-1970 area of the
Town contains the majority of the energy inefficient street
lights.
Kincardine offers a wide variety of recreational
opportunities, from the natural recreation facilities
provided by the harbour and beaches, to the pool. ice rink
and health club at the Davidson Centre. Many of the parks
and other recreational facilities throughout the town
require renovation and expansion to keep pace with the
increas ing demands of the public. The Town has 14 parks,
excluding school facilities and the community centre, most
of them are geared to active recreational pursuits, limiting
the opportunities for passive recreational opportunities
such as walking or picnicking. Al though there are many
parks within the town, the southern part of town which is
an older residential area, lacks a neighbourhood or
community park.
Di scuss ions wi th the Town's Recrea ti on Di rec tor and the
Facilities Manager identified several improvements that are
required for the Davidson Centre. Some of the deficiencies
in the facilities are air conditioning for meeting rooms.
replacement of the mammoth fans and paving of the parking
lot.
The Town has an excellent natural asset in the harbour and
associated waterfront area and could be developed to a
grea ter extent. The harbour is used to capaci ty now and
expansion to accommodate increased demand should be
considered. Increased facilities such as change facilities,
an upgraded boardwalk, landscaping and commercial facilities
would significantly upgrade the beach area as a municipal
recreation and tourist facility. A preliminary development
plan for the harbour area was prepared in 1985 which
included harbour expansion, several commercial resort
developments and an enhanced beach area.
.

.
Within the Town of Kincardine. deficiencies to cultural and
social facilities have been identified which will require
improvements to better serve the residents of the Town. The
Library requires expansion and to be made accessible to the
handicapped. Currently the Library is overcrowded and
deficient with regard to space and operational
functionality. The Needs Assessment Study for Kincardine
Branch Librarv Addition (Appolni & Fisher, 1989) concluded
that a library expansion is required. Also. the theatre
located above the Town Hall requires renovation or a new
home. The present facility necessitates a climb up a large
flight of stairs, which may inhibit access for all ages.
Other institutional buildings or facilities which are
deficient in one manner or another are the Town Hall, Fire
and Police buildings and the Tourist Hospi tali ty Centre.
The Town Hall requires exterior renovations to counter the
"progressive changes to the facade which has belittled the
former beauty of its architecture so that the Town Hall can
once again exude civic pride and prosperi ty" (Hi 11 and
Borgal). The Fire Department and Police Department have
recognized that their existing facilities are not meeting
the demands being placed on them and with future growth they
anticipate that these buildings will negatively affect the
quality of service the Fire and Police Departments provide.
The Tourist Hospitality Centre on Hwy. 21 is in need of
renovation or replacement by a new building. Deficiencies
with the existing building include structural problems, poor
insulation and lack of basic hospitality facilities such as
indoor washrooms. With tourism being a multi-million dollar
business to Kincardine the image of the Tourist Hospitality
Centre is critical to the promotion, attraction or
accommodation of tourists.
The Town of Kincardine has been continually updating hard
services throughout the town. however discussions with the
Town Engineer has identified areas in the Town which require
servicing improvements. The majority of these improvements
are located in the core area of the Town. These
improvements include sanitary and storm sewer improvements,
sidewalks, roads and street lighting. In the core area of
the town the following areas require servicing improvements;
Queen Street, Princes. Harbour and Broadway Streets and
Huron Terrace. Outside of the core area of the town the
following areas require hard service improvements; South,
Durham, William and Queen Streets, Park Lane and the
Connaught Park pumping station in the northern part of town.
The area of town located between the north and south
branches of the Penetangore River require sidewalks as none
were included when this area was originally built. Areas
that have been identified as requiring new hard services are
.

.
Goderich Street (sanitary sewersl, Bruce Avenue (road
cons truction), and the area between Bruce Avenue and the
southern Town boundary east of the cemetery (road
construction). This latter road construction project is
required to provide access to newly developing residential
subdivisions south of Kincardine. Finally the intersection
of Queen Street and Kincardine Avenue needs to be redesigned
to improve traffic movement and safety.
The area bounded by Huron Terrace. Harbour Street. Queen
Street and Wellington Street is experiencing erosion and
slope instability problems. Slope stability and erosion
control studies. one by Golder Associates and another by
D.H. Braun, identified serious erosion problems associated
with the north bank of the Penetangore River. These reports
recommended immediate implementation of measures to remedy
the erosion problem. Resolution of the erosion problem is
required to prevent loss of life or serious personal injury
and to protect $2.4 million of commercial and $.2 million
of residential property located at the top of the north bank
of the Penetangore River.
The basic environmental services, sewage treatment. water
treatment and sanitary landfill facility, which the town
provides are at or nearing the design capacity. The service
which is in the most cri tical condition is the sani tary
landfill site which has a remaining capacity of
approximately three five years. The Town is currently
pursuing permission for an interim expansion of the site to
allow sufficient time for the Town to evaluate long term
waste management options which include participation ln a
County "ide waste management master plan or development of
a "aste management plan which the Town will implement solely
on its behalf. The remaining environmental services, "ater
and sewage treatment. currently have capacity remaining in
their purification facilities. However, if the rate of
growth remains constant or increases expansion of these two
facilities will be required. The Town of Kincardine is in
the process of establishing a time frame when expansion of
the water and sewage treatment plants will be required.
Since 1982, the Town of Kincardine in co-operation with the
Township of Kincardine has improved the
Kincardine/Kincardine Township Municipal Airport.
Improvements include construction of a 1,219 metre runway,
taxi ways, terminal apron and improving navigation and
landing aids. The remaining phase is the construction of
a secondary runway of 585 metres in length to satisfy the
cross winds needs of the airport.

COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT AREA
The Community Improvement project area (Figure 4) is
identical to the Community Improvement Area as shown on
Schedule 'B' to the Town of Kincardine Official Plan. The
community improvement project area includes all lands within
the corporate limits of the Town of Kincardine, as shown on
Figure 4 of this plan. The boundaries of the area are; the
Lake Huron shoreline to the west, the municipal boundary of
Kincardine and Kincardine Township to the north, Hwy 21 in
the east and the Kincardine-Huron Township boundaries to the
south.
The Town of Kincardine is not large enough that individual
communities with separate identities have formed in the
Town, rather municipal services. community facilities and
commercial businesses have traditionally been established
to service the entire municipality not specific areas within
the municipali ty. I t is important to the Town that this
comprehens i ve philosophy continue in the communi ty
improvement plan. To continue this comprehensive philosophy
it is necessary that all lands within the corporate limits
of Kincardine be included as part of the community
improvement project area.
In Section C-8.3 of the Kincardine Official Plan, criteria
for the selection of Community Improvement Project areas
have been defined. With respect to these criteria the
choice to include all of the Town of Kincardine is
appropriate. Recognized deficiencies in the downtown
commercial area include insufficient off-street parking for
expanding commercial businesses in the north end of the
central business district, the requirement to improve access
for both vehicles and pedestrian and to improve traffic
circulation in the north part of the central business
district along Queen Street between Lambton and Broadway
Streets. These improvements are required to bring the north
end of Queen Street up to the same standard as Queen Street
in the south end of the central business district. Finally
the southwest corner of the CBD is threatened by the gradual
erosion of the Penetangore River bank. This process of
gradual erosion threatens commercial properties and the
safety of those who live in these buildings in the southwest
corner of the CBD.
The Town of Kincardine has limited available serviced
industrial land which is affecting the Town's ability to
a ttract new industry and di versi fy the Town's economic base.

In general, deficiencies have been identified Hith segments
of the sanitary sewer, water, storm sewer and road networks.
Principally, these deficiencies exist in the western half
of the town. However, the most prominent deficiency which
affects the entire town is the limited capacity of the
Town's landfill site. Deficiencies have also been
identified with respect to public facilities such as the
Town Hall. Library, Fire Station and the Community Centre
which are located in various parts of the Town.
In addition to deficiencies, several opportunities exist in
the project area. These opportunities include the ability
to develop tourist attractions and recreation facilities
through the development or redevelopment of existing. man
made and natural resources. The principal resource with
potential is Kincardine Harbour and the neighbouring
Lakefront. The use of Kincardine Harbour which principally
functions as a recreational harbour used by seasonal and
transient boaters and sports fisherman is experiencing
growth on an annual basis. The number of transient boaters
using the harbour has risen by approximately 2.4% per year
and the number of seasonal boaters has risen by
approximately 5.9% per year (Small Craft Harbour Facilities
Study. 1988). Currently the harbour does not have a well
protected basin or docking facilities. This Study projected
that the past growth rate would continue for Kincardine
Harbour and that the affluent boaters would demand quality
services, good dining and shops. To take full advantage of
this potential boating market, Kincardine needs to expand
its harbour, improve its waterfront by developing the
lake front beaches and commercial facilities and by upgrading
Harbour Street as a link tying the Queen Street business
district with the ~arbour.
An associate opportunity is the development of a 1 inear
river park system along the Penetangore River. This park
system would be physically linked to the Harbour and the
redeveloped Station Beach. The development of a linear
river park system and the redevelopment of Station Beach
would be an attraction for tourists who travel by either
boat or car. As well the Penetangore River Park System and
the redeveloped lake front would be a major recreational
facility for the residents of Kincardine.
The two economic opportunities that are available to
Kincardine are the Bruce Energy Centre and the growth in
the retail and service sectors. The Bruce Energy Centre
which is now fully serviced and has four energy consumptive
businesses established is being aggressively marketed as a
site for industries that have high energy needs. The growth
in retail and service sector is due in part to the expanded
tourism activities in this area and the expanded importance
.
32
.
of Kincardine as a commercial centre for southwest Bruce
County. To take advantage of these two economic trends. the
Town needs to provide such facility as a high profile
service business park for secondary industry which mayor
may not service the Bruce Energy Centre and facilities to
complement the expanding commercial activities such as more
off-street municipal parking.
Finally, the Town has traditionally acted as a cultural
centre for southwest Bruce County. Wi th a growing local
economy, increases in population and a growing role as a
focus of cultural and recreational activities opportunities
exist to expand the variety and quality of cultural and
recreational facilities available in the Town. The
opportunities may include the development of a Community
College campus, expanded library and theatre facilities. or
expanded sporting facilities.
Since 1984 the Town of Kincardine in conjunction with
funding from private and public sources has invested
approximately $7.9 million into Community Improvement
projects. These projects (Table 10 and Figure 5) include;
the installation of hard municipal service where none
existed before (i.e. the south end sewer project), upgrading
of existing roads, water, sanitary and storm sewers.
sidewalks and street lighting, provision of new or the
upgrading of existing cultural and recreational facilities
(i.e. Library expansion, Connaught Park softball diamonds
or Davidson Centre athletic fields). projects to stimulate
economic activities (i.e. Kincardine Business Park or
upgrading of Harbour and beach facilities) and projects that
protect both private and publ ic property (i. e. the Queen
Street erosion project or rockwave protection barrier). For
a complete list of past municipal Community Improvement
Projects refer to Table 10 and Figure 5.

COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS
The goals of this Community Improvement Plan identify the
five Community Improvement themes: Tourism and Parks,
Economic Development, Environmental Services, Transportation
Services and Soft Services. Within each of these themes,
a long range program consisting of a number of projects has
been proposed. The series of projects which in the long
term will achieve the goals and objectives of this plan and
the Community Improvement Policies of the Official Plan are
identified in Table 11 and their location within the
Community Improvement Project area is shown on Figure 6(i)-
6(iv). The components of each of these Community
Improvement Projects are listed in Appendix A.
Table 11, in addition to listing the Community Improvement
Projects identifies the relative priority and order of
implementation, estimated cost and monitoring criteria or
triggering mechanism for each project. The priority of each
project indicates the importance of each project relative
to other projects within the same or different theme as well
as the order in which these projects will be implemented.
'A' being the highest priority project represents matters
that the Town must do and which offer little or no
discretion to Town Councilor projects which represent
strategic initiatives for the Town. Consequently, it is
these projects which will be completed first, however the
order in which these 'A' priori ty projects are completed
will be contingent on completing the necessary studies and
on the manner and timing on receiving funding. 'B' priority
projects represents initiatives that are important and would
contribute greatly to the quality of life in the community.
These projects would be initiated after the 'A' priority
projects have been completed. 'C' and 'D' priority projects
represent distant objectives which are important to the
community and are proposed to be initiated after the 'A' and
'E' priority projects are completed.
The costs included in Table 11 are estimates only and are
based on the best available information about the scale,
scope and composition of each project at the time of writing
of this plan. It is acknowledged that the tendered price
may vary from these estimates due to time or due to
modifications to the project.
Finally, for each project in Table 11. a trigger mechanism
has been identified. The intent of the trigger mechanism
is that it represents a key economic, social or
environmental condi tion which if reali zed. would require
the associated project to be initiated. The monitoring of
these trigger mechanisms will assist in priori zing these
and other community improvement projects in the future. A

METHODS OF IMPLEMENTATION
This plan has been prepared to help identify to the Town of
Kincardine, community improvement projects that should be
undertaken in the short and long term. Some of these
projects may be outside of the financial capability of the
Town, and assistance from senior levels of government or
private investment may be required to undertake these
projects. In the past, community improvement projects have
been funded through a variety of sources and it is the
intention of this Plan that funds from a variety of public
and private sources will be used to implement the community
improvement projects listed in Table 11. Past sources of
funding included funding from; 1) the Town of Kincardine
capital fund, 2) grants and or assistance from other local
governments or agencies such as the County of Bruce or
Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority, 3) Program for
Renewal, Improvement, Development and Economic
Revitalization (PRIDE) or similar program of the Ministry
of Municipal Affairs, 4) other grants or loan programs of
the Provincial or Federal government, 5) private individuals
and firms, 6) private organizations such as Business
Improvement Area and 7) community groups or organizations
such as the Rotary or Kinsmen Clubs.
The general philosophy of this Community Improvement Plan
is to divide the proposed projects into Community
Improvement themes. Wi thin these themes is a list of
projects that should be undertaken as funding as other
resources are available. Due to the lengthy implementation
of some of these projects, the Town may require changes to
be made to the Plan reflecting changes in attitudes or
priorities. Any major change will require an amendment to
this plan in the future.

BENEFITS OF COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT
The economic and social benefits associated with a
comprehensive Community Improvement Plan are numerous.
Redevelopment can lead to an increased tax base as well as
increased employment both in construction and the
operation and maintenance of new or improved facilities.
Improving the Town also provides a great opportuni ty to
diversify and enhance the social well being of a community.
Places for public use and enjoyment contribute to civic
pride, and improve the community image and enhanced economic
advantages.
More specifically, the projects proposed in the plan attempt
to stimulate economic development and improve public
services and facilities available to the residents of the
Town. Enhancement of the downtown, development of a high
profile harbour/lake front tourist attraction and a business
park are public initiatives of the Town to compliment and
bolster the economy of Kincardine and surrounding area. It
is felt that the creation of a more diverse and dynamic
economy will result in the retention of local disposable
income which in the past has been spent in larger urban
centres of Owen Sound, Kitchener or Guelph, the creation of
new jobs, the establishment of new and the expansion of
existing commercial and industrial businesses, improved
commercial and industrial image and an increase in the
amount of private, commercial and tourist investment in the
community.
Complemen ting the economic development ini tia t i ves, the
improvements to community services and facilities desire to
improve the quali ty of Ii fe for those people living and
working in Kincardine. Improvements to environmental
services such as the sanitary landfill site or the upgrading
of the water and sanitary sewer systems, development of new
parks, or the upgrading of the Davidson Centre, Town Hall,
and Library are efforts to create a people oriented
environment. The creation of a people oriented environment
as a result of these community improvement projects wi II
provide a healthier, safer and more attractive environment
for 1 i ving, commerce. and the enjoyment of recreational
pursuits or other forms of social interactions. Secondary
benefits of increased levels of private investment is the
maintenance and/or rehabilitation of the Town's existing
housing stock and 'further investment in the creation of
additional housing.
