Simcoe Street South
The Simcoe Street South Renaissance Community Improvement Plan offers four financial incentive programs to encourage development and redevelopment along Simcoe St. S. (between John St. and Bloor St.):
- Economic Stimulus Grant
- Façade and Accessibility Improvement Grant
- Increased Assessment Grant
- Upgrade to Building and Fire Codes Grant
Applications for Increased Assessment Grants are accepted year-round and require Council approval. Applications for all other grant programs are accepted twice annually. The first application deadline is March first of every calendar year, and the second application deadline is September first of every calendar year.
Prior to the completion of the application form, applicants are strongly encouraged to review the Simcoe Street South Renaissance Community Improvement Plan and consult with staff from Business and Economic Development Services. Early consultation can result in the identification of matters that will significantly assist in the processing of the application.
* Note: Digital application forms are encouraged, but physical forms can be requested via [email protected] or Service Oshawa at 50 Centre St. S.
