Citified.ca posted topic CORUS - downtown Victoria building owner's task force

lpoutine, Citified.ca has just posted a new topic entitled "CORUS - downtown Victoria building owner's task force" in forum "Victoria and South Island Economy". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The lack of action on the many social issues impacting downtown Victoria has led to the formation of CORUS, a group of downtown Victoria building owners (not business owners, but property owners) that have established a task force to elevate the issues and concerns the industry has, and help restore public safety, a healthier business climate downtown and empower decision making with real-world data. CORUS is operated under the Chamber of Commerce umbrella in order to alleviate the challenges with creating a standalone organization, but is a separate entity. Membership information is in the article below. Upper Yates Street in downtown Victoria's Harris Green neighbourhood is undergoing significant change, with approximately 1,000 units of purpose-built rental homes currently under construction on opposite sides of the thoroughfare at Cook Street, as seen in this May, 2026 photo. A new task force called CORUS, made up of downtown building owners, is hoping to elevate the voice of the property ownership community to shed light on how government decisions impact property operations, and commercial tenants increasingly struggling to sustain their businesses in the city centre.
