Some great news and some money coming to Warwick Township and specifically the community of Watford. Announced this week, the Town of Watford Placemaking Vibrancy project was selected for the My Main Street Community Activator initiative and has received funding in the sum of $54,000 to provide placemaking improvements aimed at beautifying the public realm of Watford Downtown. Parks and Recreation Manager Ryan Chamney(SHAM-knee) says the project is a very good thing.
Chamney says the project will enhance the vibrancy of the downtown by creating a welcoming and engaging
environment that encourages social interaction for residents of Warwick Township and visitors to
Watford.
He adds the funds are already set for certain areas of the downtown in Watford.
My Main Street is delivered by the Canadian Urban Institute (CUI), and supported by a Government of Canada investment through the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario (FedDev Ontario).
