City introduces new downtown property incentive program
The City of North Battleford proposed a new incentive policy to help improve the downtown area at its meeting Monday.
Through the policy, the city will provide tax-based incentives to property owners for projects accepted for the program. Both commercial and residential properties are considered.
N.B director of planning and development Jennifer Niesink discussed the city’s new incentive program at council and said the aim of the policy is to encourage “revitalization and restoration.”
Mayor Ryan Bater said the incentive program will complement the disincentive program, previously introduced at council.
