With support from the Municipality of Lambton Shores, Sarnia-Lambton Economic Partnership has launched a Downtown Revitalization program to help boost the overall economic well-being of downtown Forest.
Along with a project coordinator, a Downtown Revitalization Advisory Committee was established in May 2022 to oversee and guide the revitalization project. The advisory committee is made up of a broad range of community members, including residents and local business owners.
The advisory committee is currently conducting research as part of the project, and they are looking for feedback from Forest residents and business owners.

About the Downtown Revitalization program
The Downtown Revitalization program is an initiative through Ontario's Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and aims to:
- help existing businesses get new customers
- bring more businesses to the downtown area
- team up with downtown organizations to coordinate efforts
- promote the downtown core
- make physical improvements (e.g., historic façade restoration, streetscaping, parking)
- make the downtown core safe and pedestrian-friendly
The Forest Downtown Revitalization program is facilitated by the Sarnia-Lambton Economic Partnership with support from the Municipality of Lambton Shores.
