  • Civic Precinct Master Plan 4 Addressing Current Square Design
    6. Civic Precinct Master Plan 4 Addressing Current Square Design Recommendation: That Community Services Committee recommend to City Council: That the January 19, 2015, Community Services report CR_1784, be received for information. Report Summary This report provides an update regarding festivals concerns with the Civic Precinct Master Plan and options for improved asthetics, programming and activation for Churchill Square. Previous Council/Committee Action At the April 24, 2013, City Council meeting, the following motion was passed: That Administration report back to City Council through Committee before the end of 2014 on the following: 1. Meet with the festival groups and business owners to understand and negotiate their concerns about the current square design. 2. Options to improve aesthetics of the area surrounding the square, and programming and activation. Report Overview At the April 16, 2013, Community Services Committee meeting, a number of festival groups expressed concerns with the Civic Precinct Master Plan. The Civic Precinct includes the area from the sidewalks east of 99 Street and west of 100 Street from 104 Avenue to 101A Avenue. As a result of the concerns, a consultant was contracted to interview festival and arts organizations to discuss the plan and to identify changes to ensure the space meets their needs in the coming years. Festival Groups • The six guiding principles identified in the Civic Precinct Master Plan (Attachment 1) are generally supported; however, the festival groups do not believe the current principles capture the contribution festivals make to the vibrancy of the square. An additional principle could be considered that makes a stronger statement about the use of the precinct and the square for major festivals and one-time major events.
