We want to start by thanking all the residents who have participated in the survey over the past few weeks. Our goal was to engage the community and get the conversation going regarding all the property zoned commercial in Pinawa’s downtown area, and we’re really thankful for all those among you who participated. ✨If you have not yet had the chance to fill out the questionnaire, you can do so here: https://forms.gle/f2iqxcHMLCp72cmG8

One thing became clear after a few survey questions: some residents might not be aware of exactly what we meant when we said: Pinawa’s Downtown core.

To remedy that, we’ve included some visuals on this post to keep the conversation going.

1️⃣The first picture shows all the commercial lots that make up the downtown core.
2️⃣The second picture showcases the Lac Du Bonnet Downtown core lots as a comparison.
3️⃣The third picture is a screenshot of the text describing the vision for a walkable downtown as outlined in a past Pinawa Development Plan. Definitely worth a read as it’s a great vision drafted based on feedback from the community.

We’d love to hear the community’s thoughts on this, and we hope it clarifies what we’re talking about!
