PORT CREDIT VILLAGE PROJECT MISSION
Connect – Facilitate – Promote CULTURE
As an agent of the community, Port Credit Village Project strives to connect Port Credit’s past with both the present and future. Our purpose is to protect and enhance the integrity of the Port Credit “village” character, to build on our cultural and ecological heritage, to encourage design excellence and to be a reflection of the diversity in our “village” in order to create a vibrant community for today, tomorrow and years to come. We draw strength and support from the creative, caring, and community centred people who engage in projects that address key issues such as built form and landscape heritage.
