#visionyk: have your say on three major Yellowknife projects

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

City officials will be hosting a series of open houses to collect feedback on how it should follow through with development of the 50-50 lot, the Twin Pine Hill trail network and the Hank Koenen waterfront park.

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.

“The City values feedback from our residents,” said Yellowknife Mayor Mark Heyck in a statement.

“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
  • Tuesday, November 10 from 11am to 2pm
