  • Planning for the Housing Impacts of a Hallmark Event Is Fraught with Difficulties
    PLANNING FOR THE HOUSING IMPACTS OF A HALLMARK EVENT: A CASE STUDY OF EXPO 86 By KRISTOPHER N. OLDS B.A., The University of British Columbia, 1985 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES The School of Community and Regional Planning We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard The University of British Columbia April 1988 © Kristopher N.

I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives.

Department of Canrnurrity and Regional Planning The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada na. April 26, 1988 DE-6 (2/88) i i ABSTRACT This study proposes a strategy which will assist governments, the sponsors of hallmark events, and community groups to identify and plan for the negative housing impacts of such events. Hallmark events are major one-time or recurring : events of limited duration, developed primarily to enhance the awareness, appeal and profitability of a tourist destination in the short and/or long term. World's Fairs and Olympic Games are two examples of hallmark events. The 1986 World's Fair (Expo 86) in Vancouver provided an opportunity to document the impacts of this hallmark event on the residents of a community which borders the fair site and on the planning practices of the local government.

  • Staff Report
    STAFF REPORT May 11, 2006 To: Policy and Finance Committee and Economic Development and Parks Committee From: TEDCO/Toronto 2015 World Expo Corporation, Deputy City Managers and Chief Financial Officer Subject: Toronto 2015 World Expo Bid (All Wards) Purpose: The purpose of this report is to advise City Council on the results of the due dilligence undertaken by TEDCO and its subsidiary, Toronto World Expo Corporation; to recommend that City Council support a bid; to request the Government of Canada submit a bid to the Bureau International des Exposition (BIE) to host a World Expo in Toronto in 2015; and to direct the DCM/CFO, the City Solcitor and the Toronto World Expo Coporation to seek an agreement with other levels of government on a finanicial guarantee, capital funding framework, and a corporate governance structure. Financial Implications and Impact Statement: If Toronto’s bid is successful, the financial and economic consultant to the Toronto 2015 World Expo Corporation, Price Waterhouse Coopers, forecasts that hosting the World Expo will result in the proposed World Expo Corporation incurring an overall deficit of $700 million after $1.5 billion of legacy capital assets are included as shown in Table 1. The approach and methodology used by Price Waterhouse Coopers appears reasonable, although Finance staff have not had an opportunity to fully review their detailed, comprehensive study. - 2 - Table 1 - Capital and Operating Summary of the World Expo Corporation ($2006 Billions) World Expo Corporation Capital Summary: Capital Expenditures (2.8) Sale of Assets 0.1 Total Capital Costs (2.7) World Expo Corporation Operating Summary: Operating Expenditures (1.0) Financing Costs (0.6) Operating Revenues 1.3 Funding from Other Expo Revenues 0.8 Total Operating Profit 0.5 World Expo Corporation Estimated Net Expo Deficit (including Legacy (2.2) Expenditures) Residual Legacy Capital Assets 1.5 Overall Deficit (0.7) Price Waterhouse Coopers Waterhouse’s forecast includes total estimated capital expenditures of $2.8 billion.

  • What Remains History and Locations of World Fairs
    WHAT REMAINS HISTORY AND LOCATIONS OF WORLD FAIRS This is a chronological list of exhibitions and fairs held throughout the world that gained international attention. A few regional fairs are included if they were significant to the author or for showcasing emerging technology. This list is a compilation from various sources, trying to respect the capitalization traditions from the countries of origin. When controversy arises about the date or name of a fair (should the 1849 fair held in Birmingham, United Kingdom be referred to as “Exhibition of Industrial Arts and Manufacturers” or “Exposition of British Society”) a choice has been made so the checklist remains an index of fairs. Brown text indicates that the fair occurred before the Bureau international des expositions (BIE) on November 22, 1928 or was not sanctioned by them. Purple text also shows the fair was not sanctioned, but indicates there is a link to additional information researched by the author. Black text indicates a BIE sanctioned fair. Blue text indicates a link to additional information about a sanctioned fair. 1790's 1791 Prague, Bohemia; First Industrial Exhibition 1798 Paris, France; L'Exposition publique des produits de l'industrie française 1800's 1801 Paris, France; L'Exposition publique des produits de l'industrie française (Second Exposition) 1802 Paris, France; L'Exposition publique des produits de l'industrie française (Third Exposition) 1806 Paris, France; L'Exposition publique des produits de l'industrie française (Fourth Exposition) 1810's 1819 Paris,
