District gets $1.2 million for downtown revitalization
The District of Invermere this afternoon announced that it has successfully received two significant grants that will fund continued Downtown Revitalization efforts in the town.
The funding received is from two sources, Columbia Basin Trust – $500,000; and the Province of British Columbia- $700,000, as part of the Tourism Dependent Communities Initiative program which Invermere qualifies under.
“Invermere’s downtown revitalization has been an ongoing initiative which to date has included Pothole Park, 7th Avenue approach from Pothole Park to the commercial core and the Cenotaph plaza upgrades. This new development phase will extend the refresh of 7th Avenue from the AG Foods / Inside Edge intersection to Cenotaph Park, (12th Street),” the district outlined on its website.

The municipality is considering a new location for an affordable housing project after deciding against the originally proposed Cenotaph Park location in Mt. Brydges.
The newly proposed property on Adelaide Road currently serves as an entryway for the Tri-Township Arena in Mt. Brydges; Strathroy-Caradoc councillors unanimously passed a motion on March 1 directing staff to begin the rezoning process of the property as well as to accept a report about the proposed property for information.

The municipality’s manager of building and planning Jennifer Huff wrote in the report that the new location would offer benefits including nearby downtown amenities, accessible main roads and a size suitable for a 30-unit, three storey residential building while also not being on actively used park space.
