City of Maple Ridge City of Maple Ridge | Economic Development Fact Sheet | Town Centre Maple Ridge Town Centre The City of Maple Ridge Town Centre is a great place to invest and start
your business. Creating a welcoming residential and business core is what we’re all about. If you’re looking for a new home for you or your business, it’s easy to see why moving to
Maple Ridge’s Town Centre might be the best move you’ll ever make. Our goal is to create a vibrant and robust Town Centre by creating greater residential density that will include a
range of affordable housing choices. The City of Maple Ridge is working to create a walkable Town Centre with shops, services, entertainment and recreation activities where residents
won’t need to own a vehicle and can access public transit. A high density population living in the Town Centre will create greater demand for more business and improved public transportation.
Economic and cultural changes accompanying growth Maple Ridge is evolving from a resource-based economy to one that is focused on value-added industries and professional services. Maple
Ridge encourages private investment by new and existing companies to meet the growing demand for high-value local jobs. In order to accommodate the rapid population growth and meet
the desire for more high-value local jobs, Maple Ridge council has developed a robust Official Community Plan (OCP) utilizing “smart growth” principles to guide development. The OCP
calls for the majority of residential and commercial growth to be concentrated in the urban Town Centre, creating a dense, walkable community. 2011 Residents 10,500 2040 Resident forecast
