This project has been classified as an Involve project based on the International Association of Public Participation Spectrum. This means we work directly with the public and stakeholders throughout the design process to ensure that ideas and aspirations are understood and considered for the design of the new park and its features.
In this phase, the project team will collect feedback to develop a vision statement, guiding principles and big moves that will then guide the development of park design options in Community Engagement Phase 2.
The vision is co-created with the community to describe the ideal future park. It is a big-picture statement that should inspire everyone toward a common understanding of the project’s overall goals and objectives.
The guiding principles are high-level directions that reflect the community’s most important values and ideas for how the park should look and feel. They help to clarify the vision statement and guide how the park should be designed by describing the desired outcomes.
The big moves communicate the main priorities of both the community and the City for the design of the park. They are specific directions for how the physical design can achieve the vision and guiding principles.
In this phase, the project team will work off the outcomes of Community Engagement Phase 1 to develop two or three design options for the new park. These will be presented to the community for feedback, which will be used to develop a preferred design for the new park.
The anticipated outcome of this phase is the selection of a preferred design.
In this phase, the project team will share the preferred design with the community on this page and those subscribed to the project mailing list. The project will then move into the detailed design phase, where the design team will work through the technical details and plans for the construction contractor.
The anticipated outcome of this phase is a refined preferred design.
