What direction should the Civic Core District be headed?
That is what the City of Prince George is asking its residents as they begin to develop the Civic Core District Plan (CCDP).
According to the city, the CCDP “is a guide that defines the long-term vision for the municipal properties in the downtown area near the Prince George Conference and Civic Centre,” which will be driven by input from citizens, businesses, and local groups.
They have set out three goals for the project:
- Strengthen the local economy
- Enhance the vibrancy of downtown
- Provide amenities to enhance the quality of life of Prince George citizens
An in-person “visioning session” will be held at August 11th’s Foodie Friday in Canada Games Plaza between 11:00 and 2:00, an online survey will launch on the same day.
“I would encourage as many people as possible to share their visions at one of the booths or via the online survey. Understanding what our citizens priorities are for the Civic Core and then using this information to develop a long-term, phased plan will help shape the future of Prince George,” Mayor Simon Yu said in a release.
“We want to create a plan that we can hand over to our future generations to make our city one of the greatest… be bold!”
