On
July 1, 1999 the Windsor Port Authority replaced the Windsor Harbour
Commission and became one of eighteen independently managed Canada
Port Authorities created under the new Canada Marine Act passed in
1998. The new Windsor Port Authority continues to administer federal
lands within the Port and to serve as a collective spokesperson for
the port users representing their interests on various municipal,
provincial, and federal issues.
Under
its new mandate, the Windsor Port Authority has greater management
flexibility than before including increased freedom to develop
contracts and leases related to land and facilities, to set tariffs
and fees, and to borrow money from commercial sources.
VISION
STATEMENT
The
vision of the Windsor Port Authority is to create a premier
international Great Lakes Port that will facilitate and maximize
economic development and trade.
MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of the Windsor Port Authority is to manage, develop, and promote the Port of Windsor for the benefit of its stakeholders and ensure the general security of the port while remaining sensitive to the need for a high degree of safety and environmental responsibility.
