What is a CIP:

A Community Improvement Plan (CIP) is an economic development tool used by municipalities
in Ontario to guide strategic investment, development, and revitalization initiatives that support the physical improvement of a municipality or areas within a municipality. The Elgincentives CIP was adopted in 2015, and after more than a decade of supporting community improvement across Elgin County, the County has undertaken a review.
