Beginning of 10-year plan to protect and improve waterfronts in Niagara  

Niagara This Week - St. Catharines


A series of projects that could be the start of a long-term vision to enhance waterfronts in this water-rich region have been given a green-light for funding by regional politicians. Similar to incentive programs that the Region shares with local towns and cities for such things as improving specific communities and improving the facades of old buildings, regional politicians earlier this year approved spending up to $1 million a year over 10 years as part of its long-awaited lakefront enhancement strategy.
