Importantly this Action Plan is one that is ‘co-owned’ with the City Council, ensuring that culture is embedded in the plans that will shape the city of the future. Named as one of the top five priorities in the City Council’s five year strategic plan, culture is seen as a key contributor to future prosperity and growth in Exeter.

2. Culture’s Role in Community and Economic
Development

• Revitalizes and contributes to the competitiveness and
sustainability of communities, downtowns, waterfronts, neighbourhoods
• Contributes to neighbourhood walkability and safety
• Reflects our diversity, unique stories, history and values
• Builds community pride and social cohesion
• Engages and enriches children and youth
• Economic Diversification and Impacts

Context for Municipal Cultural Planning
• Decline in manufacturing, rise of creative economy – local communities and
economies in transition.
• Cultural planning originated in Australia and the UK in the 1990s, as an
attempt by local governments to revitalize cities in need of urban renewal.
• Culture increasingly demonstrated to generate quality of place, diversify
economies and build strong, sustainable and prosperous communities.
• Reflected in leading thinking by economists and planning experts - Richard
Florida, Charles Landry, Michael Harcourt, Jon Hawkes, etc.
• Municipal cultural planning (MCP) part of growing trend toward more
integrated, place-based approaches to planning and development that takes
into account four pillars of sustainability: economic prosperity, social equity,
environmental responsibility and cultural vitality.
• MCP is a recommended practice for municipalities in the
2014 PPS.
5. What is Municipal Cultural Planning
• It involves a broad definition of cultural resources and a high degree of
community engagement in mapping local cultural resources and
developing a cultural plan.
• It is led by Municipal governments
• The cultural planning process identifies, analyses and leverages a
community’s cultural resources, strengthens the management of those
resources, and integrates cultural resources across all facets of local
government planning and decision-making
5
6. Key Steps in MCP
1. Broad community consultation and engagement
2. Mapping and assessing tangible and intangible cultural resources
3. Collaboratively establishing planning objectives for the use of
these cultural resources to meet community priorities
4. Creating the roadmap for how to get there (the Cultural Plan)
5. New governance Structures and Partnerships – Culture
Departments, Cultural Roundtables
6. Implementation and updating of Plan and adopting a cultural
lens
7. Monitor progress and share results

7. Creating an Environment
for Culture to Thrive
• While federal and provincial governments provide support for culture, it is
local governments that have the most direct impact on local cultural
development.
• Competition between cities and regions for highly mobile talent, tourism and
investment is great and the stakes are high, so every strategy needs to be
harnessed including culture.
• Governments do not create culture, but they can create an environment in
which culture can thrive. Cultural planning is the first step in creating this
environment.
• How? Understanding the unique cultural resources in your region, supporting
increased cultural vibrancy, and leveraging culture to fuel community and
economic development
– Support cultural activity, public art programs, culture days
– Preserve cultural heritage – cultural heritage districts, heritage preservation tax credits
– Intensify the cultural vitality of a specific neighbourhood – galleries, cultural centre,
wineries, restaurants, farmers market, heritage buildings, other attractions unique to
the place 7
8. Cultural Occupations
• Creative occupations – librarians, archivists and curators, producers, actors and
musicians, artists photographers, architects, designers, artisans, jewellers, writers,
editors, translators, film editors and video game developers, etc.
• Technical support occupations - sound engineers, stage managers, historic site
interpreters, photographic processors, camera operators, casting agents, etc.
• Manufacturing support occupations - photo and film processors; desktop
publishing operators; book binding and finishing machine operators, etc.
• Management support occupations – art gallery, museum and heritage site
managers, festival directors, radio station managers, interactive digital gaming
company managers, etc.
• Government occupations – culture research and policy analysts, consultants,
program delivery officers and managers in federal, provincial or local governments
• Education occupations related to culture - university, college, secondary, or
elementary school art and culture teachers and managers
• Also – winemakers, local food and craft merchants, interpreters of trails and
conservation areas, local chefs, tattoo artists, etc.

9. Ontario’s Culture Strategy - Consultations
• The Province is consulting with Ontarians this fall to develop Ontario’s first culture
strategy that will set the government’s priorities and actions to support culture over the
coming years.
• The province and culture sector have changed significantly since many of Ontario’s
programs were first developed. Three major factors are having a profound impact on
the culture sector: the fiscal environment, digital transformation, demographic changes.
• The culture strategy is an opportunity to ensure that support for culture in the province
reflects these changes and achieves the best possible outcomes for all Ontarians.
Ontario recognizes that arts and culture matter – to our lives, our communities and to
Ontario’s economy . The strategy will identify opportunities to strengthen culture in
Ontario by doing things better or differently within the current funding envelope
