FCM’s Leadership in Brownfield Renewal (LiBRe) network links municipal staff from Canadian cities and communities of all sizes. Their municipalities have committed to remediating and redeveloping brownfield sites.
Whether you’re a novice or an expert, you can join the network and use our seven-step framework to move your municipality toward achieving its brownfield redevelopment goals. You’ll learn how to identify, navigate and reduce barriers to site redevelopment.
