Help Us Roadmap the Future of Downtown Camrose

October 28, 2024


The City of Camrose hosted this collaborative planning and idea exchange workshop at MainStreet 1908 on October 28.


It was an opportunity to bring together business owners and champions of the downtown to discuss what matters most to them when looking ahead into the future.


Businesses were asked the following questions:


What makes a business want to stay downtown?

What makes a business want to move downtown?

What prevents people from choosing downtown?

What is going well downtown?


Be sure to look for a summary of the event in the next business newsletter.
