Request for Expressions of Interest & Visioning Summary-Next Steps

Thank you everyone who took the time to provide feedback on the new community centre’s indoor visioning or expressed interest in exclusive use of space.

Over the past three months, City staff have been busy collecting input through online surveys, in-person engagements and virtual engagement sessions.

• We received dozens of expressions of interest for the exclusive use of the indoor space.
• Three in-person visioning sessions and one virtual engagement sessions were held. 85 people attended the four sessions.
• Residents also had the opportunity to provide visioning feedback at the Appleby Line Street Festival and the Food for Feedback event. Each event was very well attended.

Indoor visioning is still accepting submissions through the “ideas” tab until Friday, Oct. 27, 2023.

Staff have started reviewing the submissions, ideas, worksheets and comments.

The next step in this process is to create staff reports that will go to Committee in January 2024. These reports will outline the community vision and the themes of the expression of interest.

Another update on the indoor programming will be posted here early in the new year.
