Indoor community spaces
This project is now complete! Find the strategy report on our website.
The City of Waterloo is developing an Indoor Community Space Master Plan (ICSMP) to guide the city's actions and investments related to indoor spaces over the next 10 years. We want to better understand how spaces such as meeting rooms, event spaces, gymnasiums and ice pads are currently used and how they can be enhanced to better serve our growing population. The plan will support making city facilities more usable, welcoming, inclusive and environmentally friendly.
