3 Introduction Downtown Whitby is a unique destination and focal point of the community. From the array of historic architectural buildings, to the cultural spaces to the variety of businesses, the Downtown provides a basis for our community identity. For many years, Downtown Whitby has struggled to attract new investment to the area mostly as a result of development opportunities in other parts of the community. In 2014, Council created a set of eight goals, many which address downtown development and the need to build downtowns that are pedestrian-focused destinations and to realize the economic and social potential of our downtowns. In response, staff drafted the Downtown Whitby Action Plan in consultation with the public, to help guide the Town of Whitby and community towards downtown renewal and investment initiatives. This document outlines the Vision, Goal, Objectives and Action Items to initiate positive and progressive changes in Downtown Whitby moving forward. The plan is simple, realistic and presents opportunity to inspire change so that together we can make Downtown Whitby a destination! 1
4 Public Consultation In the spring/summer of 2016, staff initiated several community engagement sessions and public consultation meetings in order to obtain feedback on the proposed Downtown Whitby Action Plan to ensure alignment with the community s priorities. The sessions ranged from open houses, pop-up booths, display boards at Town Hall, and phone conversations, social media feedback, completion of comment cards, and one-on-one discussions with residents and visitors. Through this process, staff received an overwhelming response and is appreciative of the comments and general enthusiasm to work collaboratively to strengthen and promote Downtown Whitby. The comments and suggestions have been included and applied to this Action Plan. Farmer s Market Pop-Up Booth Spring Clean-Up April 23 Doors Open May 7 Community Meeting June 28 2
5 Walkability Walkability can be described as a measure to indicate how friendly an area is to walking. This can be attributed to many factors including the presence of sidewalks, a mix of land use patterns, accessibility, safety, connectivity, residential density, the presence of green spaces and trees, the variety of shops and services, and cultural anchors of a community. Overall, a more walkable community will provide increased health, environmental, and socioeconomic conditions to the people who live and/or work in the area. As part of the visioning exercise for this project, staff developed a Walkability Map (next page) which provides a snapshot of existing attributes within a five and ten minute walking radius of the Four Corners at Brock and Dundas Streets. This map shows existing key features, stable neighbourhoods, potential gateway opportunities, municipal property and lands that could be redeveloped over time as well as highlights the four Downtown Connecting Corridors along the Brock and Dundas Street spines. These are areas where a high concentration of future redevelopment can likely occur as they are located along major transportation routes and within a five to ten minute walk to the commercial core. The Walkability Map is a benchmark demonstrating Downtown Whitby s current state and can be used to feed into many of the action items as presented in this plan. The map can be updated over time as projects begin to take shape and redevelopment of the area occurs. 3

7 Vision Downtown Whitby is a vibrant, viable, innovative and walkable urban destination that engages and inspires people to shop, live, work, play and connect. The following sets of streetscape images were created to help guide a desired vision for Downtown Whitby, defining many of the Objectives and Action Items in this plan. Celebration Square Brock & Colborne Streets Brock Street Brock & Dunlop Streets Byron Street South 5
8 Goal The goal of the Downtown Whitby Action Plan is to inspire change so that together we can make Downtown Whitby a destination. Objectives 1.

17 Measuring Success of the Plan Success of the plan will be measured on completion of the various action items as well as regular updates to the Walkability Map which highlights Downtown Whitby s features and attributes on how walkable the area is within a five and ten minute walking radius of the Four Corners at Brock and Dundas Streets. Some action items require that more information be collected in order to be able to measure the item over time. This will be completed through the interdepartmental team in collaboration with other groups Conclusion The Downtown Whitby Action Plan is a comprehensive document that outlines the priority projects and investments in Downtown Whitby moving forward. The plan focuses on four key objectives with a total of 27 action items that will be undertaken and evolve over time. Council s adoption of this Action Plan will define and prioritize downtown initiatives and conveys Council s commitment to investing and achieving the downtown vision. The ongoing leadership from multiple stakeholders including Council, staff, business and property owners, organizations and committees will ultimately lead to the successful implementation of the Action Plan. Everyone has a role to play in shaping and building Downtown Whitby so that together we create a destination. This Plan sets the foundation to achieve this goal. 15
