Economic Development Strategy

The Town of Riverview is pleased to share their latest Economic Development Strategy, created with crucial input from the community. Thanks to the contributions of residents, partners, and local leaders through in-person and online consultations, we gathered unique ideas, aspirations, and needs to help mold Riverview’s economic runway.  

Business Support
Strengthening Riverview’s economic resilience through enhancing land access, supporting infrastructure and service support, identifying talent gaps and attraction tactics, seeking out retail and culinary opportunities, and supporting businesses either starting up or expanding.  

Community Development
Imagining a town where residents can thrive through sustainable and responsible population growth, continuing the momentum on our housing strategies, enhancing transportation efficiency, advocating to improve access to healthcare services, advocating for education offerings, and enhancing communications.  

Lifestyle Enhancement
Further cultivating the quality-of-life residents know through tourism strategies, promotions of arts and culture as well as events and festivals, supporting recreational asset enhancements, and celebrating local success stories through increased marketing and promotions.  

This new Community Economic Development Strategy and Operational Plan are being implemented at an opportune time. The ever-changing socio-economic landscape in Riverview underscored the need for new direction based on current trends, and this strategy was adopted to guide Riverview towards smart growth in the years to come.
