Infrastructure <strong>Plan</strong>ning and<br />
the Network <strong>of</strong> Centres<br />
11.1<br />
The <strong>District</strong>’s objective is to maximize infrastructure efficiencies. Infrastructure, roads, and<br />
land use strongly define the urban structure <strong>of</strong> the <strong>District</strong>. Most <strong>of</strong> our future growth will be<br />
directed to centres and corridors. Efficiencies can be achieved and use <strong>of</strong> municipal assets<br />
maximized by focussing these in centres where they are most easily accessed by the greatest<br />
number <strong>of</strong> people.<br />
Policies<br />
1. Focus infrastructure investment within Town and Village Centres and strategic corridors connecting<br />
them<br />
2. Limit infrastructure extension beyond the urban containment boundary<br />
3. Reinforce community pride and sense <strong>of</strong> place through sensitive design <strong>of</strong> public facilities and<br />
infrastructure<br />
4. Identify opportunities to co-locate services and infrastructure to realize both capital and operating<br />
efficiencies<br />
5. Design facilities and infrastructure to respond to the various and changing needs <strong>of</strong> <strong>District</strong><br />
residents and to changing technologies<br />
Provide infrastructure to<br />
support community health,<br />
safety and economic<br />
prosperity, and facilities<br />
that enhance recreational<br />
opportunities, cultural activity<br />
and artistic expression<br />
