in the Arima Urban Regeneration Project (AURA), as
outlined in the Arima Borough Corporation Municipal
Investment Plan and the Arima Draft Spatial Develop-
ment Plan which were prepared for the borough by
a private consultant in collaboration with many com-
munity groups and government agencies. These plans
reflect the realization that the population of Arima is
expected to grow to between 56,000 to 70,000 by the
year 2020.
The main development objectives of Arima for the
next several years, according to the Spatial Develop-
ment Plan are as follows:
• Environmental and cultural sustainability
• Meaningful and secure jobs
• Functional efficiency and aesthetic appeal
• Accessibility and permeability
• Equitable distribution of social and physical infra-
structure
• Housing adequate to meet the needs of all
• Effective municipal management
Specific projects include:
• Providing additional parking in the town centre to
improve traffic management
• Providing more public conveniences within the town
centre
• Providing accommodation for a Night Food Market
at the underutilized Arima Amphitheatre
It is hoped that these projects will contribute to the
economic development of the Borough of Arima as well
as add to the quality of life for all the city’s residents.
