CIP Business Grants and Rebates — Embrun Business Park and 417 Industrial Park

Supporting local businesses and promoting economic development is one of our priorities.

The Community Improvement Plan (CIP) for the Embrun Business Park and the 417 Industrial Park is a grant program that can offer up to $20,000 for local business owners to renovate and improve their properties. This grant/rebate program helps us:

  • encourage businesses to stay, to open, and to expand within our community;
  • create more tax revenue thanks to increased commercial and industrial property values;
  • improve the appearance and function of our business parks.
