Projects facilitated by the Department of Community Development will focus on enhancing the overall quality of life for residents in Antigonish and surrounding communities by creating an environment that encourages new development, promotes entrepreneurship, and fosters our cultural well-being, as well as community pride.
With the introduction of this new Department, the Town can take a more active role in implementing effective strategies that will build a healthy and economically prosperous community. The Town will look for new opportunities to build networks within the community in order to gain insight on how to plan effectively for the future.
