Orillia Heading in the Right Direction

In this year’s Progress 2013 publication, the Orillia Packet and Times highlights some of the progress being made on various fronts in and around Orillia.

The City has already had success with its moratorium on industrial development charges and this year will start marketing its fully-serviced employment lands in west Orillia.

It will also be a year of renewal for the City’s three key cultural assets: the Leacock Museum, the Orillia Opera House and the Orillia Museum of Art and History.

In the private sector, there are also many good signs, including the opening of a new Target store that many hope will reinvigorate Orillia Square mall.

In the education sector, millions have been invested in local schools and both Georgian College and Lakehead University have big plans for Orillia.
