The Downtown Paris Master Plan was adopted by Council in October 2019. It was developed over a two year period and included four public consultations and extensive stakeholder consultations to gather valuable feedback.

The Downtown Paris Master Plan offers a strategy to adapt downtown Paris into an inclusive place for people of all ages and abilities while protecting its unique historic and charming character.  As the Town of Paris looks to the future, this plan addresses challenges of future growth, environmental concerns and takes a people first/community first approach. 

The implementation of the Downtown Paris Master Plan is expected to begin in 2022.  The implementation strategy will carefully review the design, address accessibility, and will phase and time construction to ensure the least amount of disruption to the downtown. Further public consultation will occur at each stage of detailed design and implementation.

Wayfinding is the process of using and organizing information to find one’s way in the built and natural environment.
