Resource based economy – the economy here continues to be based on forestry. Need to diversify our identity from a forestry town to something else such as a Regional shopping centre, transportation hub, winter sports destination etc.

Urban Green-spaces and recreational access to the rivers

ensure all downtown buildings are rented to businesses. ONLY retail on main floor, offices on 2nd floor and above, residential above that. Create semi permeable membranes so businesses flow out into the street (in summer months),

Innovative City Hall-open to new ideas and change. Railroads and heavy industry moved out of bowl. Aggressive promotion of eat local, home gardening, composting, urban chickens. Plant useful (coniferous, fruit) trees not ornamental.
