Reimagine Downtown! Downtown Business Open House

An opportunity for downtown business owners to connect one-on-one with City staff about Reimagine Downtown!.

The City of Kamloops is inviting residents, businesses, and community partners to take part in Reimagine Downtown!, a public engagement initiative that will help guide the next phase of planning and revitalization for downtown Kamloops.

This afternoon session is set aside for downtown business owners to connect one-on-one with City staff about Reimagine Downtown!

Input will help explore ideas and identify priorities, including:

  • enhancing the pedestrian experience while supporting adjacent businesses
  • continuing to support vehicle access, parking, loading, and circulation
  • integrating cycling, micromobility, and other active transportation modes
  • improving street character through attractive paving, furnishings, plantings, and lighting
  • incorporating gateways, public art, and other placemaking elements
  • supporting community activity, such as markets, block parties, and festivals

Input from the community will play a critical role in shaping a downtown that reflects local needs, supports economic vitality, and strengthens downtown Kamloops as a vibrant place to live, work, and gather.
