Saanich has adopted its first economic development strategy, with 21 initiatives designed to diversify the district’s economy, while retaining and growing its existing business base.

The strategy, to be implemented over a five-year period, aims to ensure the availability of services needed by businesses, investors and institutions to both expand existing enterprises and create new employment ­opportunities.

“We know that more people will be moving to this community and we want to ensure that we have employers that offer good-paying, family-supporting jobs and ideally that is going to happen in areas where people can settle in walkable neighbourhoods,” said Mayor Dean Murdock.
