Burlington's Strategic Plan 2015-2040

Burlington City Council on April 11, 2016, unanimously approved Burlington's Strategic Plan 2015-2040, the product of strong engagement and a plan the city believes captures the priorities of the city's residents and community leaders.

The strategic plan includes four strategic directions:

A City that Grows
The City of Burlington attracts talent, good jobs and economic opportunity while having achieved intensification and a balanced, targeted population growth for youth, families, newcomers and seniors.
A City that Moves
People and goods move through the city more efficiently and safely. A variety of convenient, affordable and green forms of transportation that align with regional patterns are the norm. Walkability within new/transitioning neighbourhoods and the downtown are a reality.
A Healthy and Greener City
The City of Burlington is a leader in the stewardship of the environment while encouraging healthy lifestyles.
An Engaging City
Community members are engaged, empowered, welcomed and well-served by their city. Culture and community activities thrive, creating a positive sense of place, inclusivity and community.

Community Energy Plan
