  • Renfrew-Collingwood Community Vision
    Vision Highlights Renfrew-Collingwood Today Renfrew-Collingwood is a dynamic, family-oriented neighbourhood, known for its active community spirit and remarkable diversity. Its residents value the area’s single family neighbourhoods, views from public places, and open sections of Still Creek and Renfrew Ravine. The area’s parks offer precious open space and are heavily used as are the community centre, pool, neighbourhood house, and community policing centre. The Vision seeks to maintain these community assets. The Renfrew-Collingwood Vision also seeks to improve the community. Residents want more actions to protect the environment and daylight Still Creek as well as new initiatives to improve community safety and increase the attractiveness of parks, school grounds, streets and lanes. Primary arterials should be made safer and easier to cross and several secondary arterials should be reclassified as collectors. Residents seek increased input to decisions which affect them, enhanced walking/biking routes, and expanded recreation programs for youth, seniors, and families. The Vision supports additional seniors housing and new housing variety around more attractive shopping areas. Create More Attractive Parks, Streets, Lanes, and Public Places There should be more variety in park design, appear- ance, and activities to serve the diverse population of the community. School grounds should become attractive, usable community spaces. More park space should be added in poorly served areas of Renfrew- Collingwood and along restored areas of Still Creek. Renfrew Ravine should be enhanced and all parks should be better maintained. More attention should be paid to safety in parks. Streets should be en- hanced as pleasant green links that connect the neighbourhood and there should be greener alternatives to fully paved lanes.
