Aurora Square Master Planning Open House Wednesday, Apr 24

As part of its ongoing Aurora Square renewal efforts, the City will host an open house on Wednesday, April 24 to share information and hear from residents about the City’s master planning process for the area.

Aurora Square is home to many outstanding businesses, but due to the absence of cohesive planning and investment, the center provides little cohesion between them. In the first step of the Aurora Square renewal plan, the City is stepping in to act as the master planning agent.

Our City’s master planning is intended to provide a dynamic and flexible framework for guiding public-private partnership projects by allowing each individual property owner to understand and invest in the “big picture” while not needing to control other properties.

Master planning will enable the City and property owners to take a fresh look at the current structures and road network in and around Aurora Square. Planning will emphasize repurposing buildings, increasing land use efficiency and improving traffic flow and pedestrian connectivity, all in an effort to enhance the visitor’s experience.

The open house will provide residents with an opportunity to learn more about the master planning process and a chance to provide comments on the planning efforts.

The open house will be held at City Hall from 7:00 to 8:30pm on Wednesday, April 24.
