Residents and stakeholders have helped to shape the vi- sion, guiding principles, goals and recommendations contained in this plan. The economic development and community services departments, on behalf of the City of Wa- terloo, are thankful for the time, effort and dedication of all that have contributed to this initiative. The community members who participated at the culture plan summit, in focus groups, at work- shops, via the discussion guide in person or online, or contributed to the project by sharing their talent in many other ways big and small have shaped a culture plan that will enrich the quality of life for Waterloo’s residents and delight visitors to the region. Thank you to staff across the cor- poration who shared information and ideas. The City of Waterloo would like to acknowledge Mayor Brenda Halloran and councillors Melissa Durrell, Diane Freeman, Jeff Henry, Karen Scian, Angela Vieth, Mark Whaley and Scott Witmer for their ongoing leadership and support for this project. Their involvement has been crucial to achieving this milestone in transforming Waterloo's cultural landscape.
