The downtown needs a business plan. It needs designated shopping areas, or districts, like a home decor street, clothing areas, and sports districts. As well as restaurants and cafes.  read more »

My vision is to have a conversation involving all demographic categories of the people of prince george on how to fortify and strengthen our downtown core and the community as a whole.

Trees are missing from Prince George. Did you ever notice in farming towns that trees grow everywhere? Along every street, planted in peoples' yards, flowers in profusion.

Downtown should be accessible to everyone. it is almost there, however someone on a mobility scooter or powered wheelchair cannot get into all the facilities that are available in the downtown core. Some places persons with that type of equipment cannot even get close to.  read more »

I would love to see a much larger police presence downtown. It should not be okay to conduct drug deals in plain sight in the middle of the day. (No time is ever okay). It's happening all over the downtown. Maybe if some of the "people" downtown felt a little heat more than once in a while, it would be more difficult for them to conduct business.  read more »

Bathrooms in businesses are there for the use of the staff and customers. But downtown is a public realm and should have public bathroom facilities that are safe and clean.
