  • Facilitating the Integration of Planning and Development for Downtown Revitalization
    Facilitating the Integration of Planning and Development for Downtown Revitalization: CentreVenture’s Involvement in the Redevelopment of Downtown Winnipeg by Elisabeth Saftiuk A practicum submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of City Planning Department of City Planning University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2014 Elisabeth Saftiuk Abstract Downtowns contribute significantly to the economy of cities and as a result, decision makers are increasingly recognizing the fundamental value and importance of maintaining viable downtown cores. Following the post-war era of urban decay and suburban expansion, there have been widespread attempts nationwide to reverse trends and to revitalize downtowns. In the Winnipeg context, urban renewal was practiced throughout the 1960s and 1970s; tripartite agreements were utilized during the 1980s; and development corporations were introduced throughout the 1980s and 1990s as a way to encourage private sector investment with targeted public sector investments. This practicum investigates the relationship between planning and development in the downtown revitalization context. In particular, this research aims to discover the extent to which a downtown development agency may have facilitated the better integration of planning and development in a city’s downtown, where revitalization has been very much on the public agenda. Winnipeg’s CentreVenture Development Corporation was used as a case study to explore this relationship. It was established in 1999 and continues to operate today. This paper attempts to determine the extent of its involvement, and the manner by which this arms-length government agency has aided and influenced tangible development in Winnipeg’s downtown.

  • Lead Concentrations in Soil in Winnipeg Neighbourhoods
    Summary of Findings: Lead Concentrations in Soil in Winnipeg Neighbourhoods The Province of Manitoba, as represented by the Ministers of Health, Seniors and Active Living and Sustainable Development, commissioned an independent review of the potential health risks associated with lead in soils throughout the City of Winnipeg. This review was completed by a team led by Intrinsik Corp., in association with Habitat Health Impact Consulting, which included certified toxicologists, risk assessors, and a medical doctor. It included an evaluation of the benefits of conducting further investigations and provided recommendations regarding risk management and communication related to lead in soils. The work was completed between May and November 2019 and was divided into five tasks: • Task 1: Review of available soil data for Winnipeg neighbourhoods. • Task 2: Review of current and historical sources of lead in Winnipeg. • Task 3: Review of approaches used by Canadian and Western jurisdictions for assessing and managing lead in soil. • Task 4: Assessment of health risks associated with the lead concentrations measured in Winnipeg soils. • Task 5: Recommendations for further assessment of risks and possible risk management options. Summaries of the activities completed under each Task along with the key findings are presented below. Task 1: Review of Available Soil Data for Winnipeg Neighbourhoods Since the mid-1970s, the Province of Manitoba has completed several studies to measure the level of lead in Winnipeg soils. The focus was on the most recent studies completed by the Province, as well as a study conducted by the University of Manitoba for the neighbourhood of St. Boniface. All of the reported soil results were compared with the current health-based guideline for residential soils available from the Canadian Council for Ministers of the Environment.

  • WARDS BOUNDARIES COMMISSION - File GL – 5.1
    WARDS BOUNDARIES COMMISSION - File GL – 5.1 Communication dated August 24, 2017, from Lisa Schreier ‐‐‐‐‐Original Message‐‐‐‐‐ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, August 24, 2017 7:42 AM To: CLK‐CityClerks Subject: Winnipeg.ca : Comment Good morning! This note is to submit a comment about the reassessing of the City of Winnipeg Boundaries, which is heading for reassessment. My family lives in the Richmond Lakes area of Winnipeg, which is currently a part of the St. Norbert area. Living in this area is wonderful, a small little pocket of community, with parks, walking trails, and a short walk to the area of St. Norbert with the world‐class Farmers' Market, and much more. We love it here! Our current Councillor, Janice Lukes has been OUTSTANDING in putting some love and attention into our area, as we have always suffered from Perimeter‐itis (all projects seemed to happen within the city perimeter). Ms. Lukes has spent a lot of time and money in fixing up our areas. We are all grateful for the construction projects along Pembina Highway, an area that sadly has been over looked and neglected for years and is quite a depressing entrance to our City and should instead be celebrated as a HUGE starting point of one of the the longest roadway system (through to Mexico). Grandmont Park, our little treasure, is getting some love now ‐ upgraded walking paths, opened up parking lot and we are hoping for lights to be installed for the walkers and dog‐walkers' safety. And, what's important, is that Ms.
