The City of Yellowknife is inviting you to have your say on how it proceeds with three design projects.

In addition to the open houses, an online feedback form will also be available by November 6 for residents to submit ideas.

People are also encouraged to use the hashtag #visionyk on social media to spark further conversation.

“Presenting the plans for three projects will provide the public an opportunity to see the development that the City is undertaking to enhance multiple neighbourhoods and help us create a vision that Yellowknifers support.”

The open houses will be held in the lower boardroom at City Hall during the following times:

  • Monday, November 9 from 11am to 2pm
  • Monday, November 9 from 7pm to 9pm
