View from the Top: Strategic Plan 2025-2030
The Township of Georgian Bluffs is excited to share our Strategic Plan for 2025–2030. This roadmap outlines our vision for sustainable growth, community well-being, and environmental stewardship. It reflects feedback from our residents, businesses, and community stakeholders.
Our Commitment
Everything we do should reflect on the impact we can make to building an inclusive, diverse and equitable community. We seek to prioritize a sense of belonging, and will take steps to address systemic barriers to municipal services.
We will seek to further the principles of Truth and Reconciliation; we continue to reflect and learn on our shared pasts and build toward a better future. We will strive to build, grow, and advance relationships with Saugeen Ojibway Nation in the spirit of reconciliation. We will honour and seek to support and respect the lands and thriving cultural heritage of Saugeen Ojibway Nation communities.
Climate change is an inter-generational crisis. Along with communities around the world, Georgian Bluffs is both directly impacted by the effects of climate change and responsible for taking steps to reduce the impacts that we have on climate as we serve communities. In all that we do, the impacts to climate change, both positive and negative, must be considered.
