Two of the major recommendations of the Art of Living Plan have resulted in the establishment of the Edmonton Heritage Council and the creation of a Historian Laureate position. The Edmonton Heritage Council (EHC) was formally launched in 2009 and the selection process for the first City of Edmonton Historian Laureate was well underway at year-end.

  • Envision 109 : Phase
    109 STREET STREETSCAPE CONCEPT DESIGN PHASE ONE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT WHAT WE HEARD REPORT City of Edmonton Sustainable Development and Integrated Infrastructure Services February 2016 TABLE OF CONTENTS A. Project Overview B. Public Involvement Process C. What We Heard ‐ Overall Themes D. What We Heard: Public Input Details Appendix A – Project Stakeholders Appendix B ‐ Public Open House ‐ Communications/Advertising Appendix C – Public Open House Materials Appendix D – Comment Form A. PROJECT OVERVIEW The City of Edmonton initiated a Streetscape Concept Design study for 109 Street between 61 Avenue and the High Level Bridge (Envision 109) in 2015. The corridor serves several residential neighbourhoods, schools, businesses and major transit routes and is a major route linking downtown and south Edmonton. Planning studies have been carried out to revitalize the corridor over the past decade. The 109 Street Corridor Area Redevelopment Plan (ARP) (2013) suggested that a Comprehensive Streetscape Improvement Plan be developed to review the function of the corridor, to improve the pedestrian environment and to help revitalize the adjacent areas. Streetscape improvements will be built in stages as funding becomes available. Working together with the public and stakeholders, Envision 109 aims to develop future streetscape concept designs that: make the street aesthetically appealing; address the needs of drivers, cyclists, pedestrians and transit riders; and consider opportunities to enhance accessibility, safety, furnishings, signage, surface treatments, public art, lighting, public spaces and more. Two streetscape concept design options will be developed: short‐term off‐street improvements— improvements to the public realm that do not involve reconstruction of the roadway—and long‐term road/streetscape improvements— reconstruction of roadway that envisions a more pedestrian oriented street.

  • Donair: Official Food of Halifax Regional Municipality
    P.O. Box 1749 Halifax, Nova Scotia B3J 3A5 Canada Item No. 11.5.5 REVISED Request for Council’s Consideration X Included on Agenda Added Item Request from the Floor (Submitted to Municipal (Submitted to Municipal Clerk’s Office by Noon Clerk’s Office by Noon Thursday) Monday) Date of Council Meeting: Tuesday, October 20, 2015 Subject: Donair: Official food of Halifax Regional Municipality Motion for Council to Consider: Halifax Regional Council request a staff report to consider approving the Donair as the Official Food of Halifax Regional Municipality Reason: The Donair is Halifax’s most unique and famous delicacy. The recipe for the Donair was founded by Peter Gamalakos. He opened Halifax’s first Donair shop, The King of Donair on Quinpool Road in 1973. The Donair was a staple food item for families and students in the area. It has since become an iconic food and symbol of Halifax Regional Municipality and Nova Scotia. The Province of Nova Scotia has advertised the Donair across Canada to attract tourism and the Downtown Halifax Business Commission has used it to promote downtown Halifax. Visitors come to Halifax to experience their first Donair. The Donair has brought recognition to Halifax unlike any other food.
