Help Shape Richmond's Tourism Future Through 2035
Official title: Draft Richmond Tourism Master Plan
Richmond is asking residents to review its draft 10-year tourism plan. The plan sets a vision for how the city should develop as a destination through 2035. Over 750 people already helped shape this draft through surveys and community events. Now you can weigh in on the goals and strategies before it's finalized.
Why This Matters
Live in Richmond? This plan shapes what tourism looks like in your neighbourhood for the next decade. More visitors could mean more jobs and busier restaurants—but also more traffic and higher housing pressure. Your feedback helps balance growth with livability.
What Could Change
The final plan will guide city investments in tourism infrastructure and marketing through 2035. It could influence which areas get developed, what events Richmond hosts, and how the city promotes itself as a destination. Strategic initiatives in the plan will shape funding priorities.
Key Issues
- What should Richmond's destination vision be for the next decade?
- Are the three proposed goals the right priorities for tourism development?
- Do the strategic initiatives align with community needs?
