The City of Elliot Lake has a Community Improvement Plan.

We contracted a planning firm to create this plan. The firm drafted it in 2008. The Economic Development Committee passed Amendments in 2017.

Community Improvement Plan documents

View the Community Improvement Plan.

You can also see the Downtown Core and Industrial Improvements Final Report. We used this report as the basis for the revised urban design guidelines.

Improvement areas

The plan offers incentives for buildings in the:

  • Downtown core
  • North industrial area
  • South industrial area

Incentive program and application

The plan allows us to give building and property incentives.

Apply for this program with the online incentive application.

Incentives include:

  • Accessibility
  • Building and property revitalization
  • Building façade improvements
  • Energy efficiency
  • Landscaping and property improvements
  • Planning and design
  • Planning application fee and building permit fee grant
  • Property tax increment incentive
  • Signage, awnings and street numbering

Maximum incentive

You can apply for a combination of incentives up to the maximum amount for your property size.

Maximum amounts:

  • Regular property: $20,000
  • Large, multi-tenant building: $40,000

Improvement area and incentive goal

The goal is to create inviting areas that encourage sidewalk activities. An example of this is window-shopping. Buildings should express interesting visuals and individuality. They should also preserve architectural heritage.

The incentives should not limit creativity. They should create a diverse and unified municipal appearance.
