Reminder: Have Your Say on the Future of Economic Development in Ramara

The Township is reminding residents and businesses from across the municipality to share their input on the future of economic development in Ramara by completing a survey open until Dec.12, 2025.

The survey can be completed online at ramara.ca/EcDev. To request the survey in an alternative format, please contact the Township at info@ramara.ca or 705-484-5374.

Community members are encouraged to complete the survey and share their perspectives on topics such as business challenges and opportunities, tourism and identity, revitalization opportunities, infrastructure needs, and what successful economic development should look like in Ramara. Survey participants will also have the option to enter a draw for a Local Ramara Prize Pack.

In addition to the survey, Georgian College is conducting interviews with various Township businesses, organizations, and community partners. Insights gathered through these interviews will complement survey results and help ensure the Township gains a comprehensive understanding of local needs and opportunities.

All feedback collected through this engagement process will be analyzed by Georgian College and summarized in a report to Council in early 2026.

This engagement effort is part of a collaborative project between the Township and Georgian College’s Research and Innovation Department to inform the development of an updated Economic Development Strategy and a new Community Improvement Plan (CIP), which will help guide future investment, identify revitalization priorities, enhance business supports, and shape a long-term vision for economic prosperity across the Township.
