In June at the Southlands Red Barn, Century Group invited a diverse group of local citizens, who reflect a variety of community interests, to explore a vision and conceptual ideas for the redevelopment of the Tsawwassen Town Centre site. 48 people attended and provided their initial ideas and feedback.
They considered a series of “This or That” questions about different elements of a future plan, using dot voting to express their preferences. Next, they engaged in an interactive planning exercise to explore how buildings and open space might be distributed on the site, looking at the spatial realities using representative scaled block pieces to conceptualize a layout for redevelopment of the site. There was also an opportunity to provide other ideas and feedback by completing feedback forms at the end of the event.
