Phase 2 Stadium Analysis Public Consultation Dates Set

(October 6, 2011) - The Stadium Analysis Steering Committee will host a series of public consultations to gather public feedback on a potential stadium for HRM.

The sessions are part of the Phase 2 Stadium Analysis approved by Halifax Regional Council to provide a detailed vision, preliminary design, possible site, and capital cost in order to ultimately decide whether or not to proceed to develop a stadium for the municipality.

“We’re eager to attract as many people as possible to these sessions,” said Committee Chair Kim Mason. “This analysis needs strong and clear messages from the community on what they want for their city.”

There will be four themed sessions.

October 12th: “VISION: What could a HRM stadium be?” - Halifax Forum, Maritime Hall - 7 - 9 p.m.
October 13th: “Influence LOCATION and DESIGN” - Farrell Hall, 276 Windmill Road - 7 - 9 p.m.
November 16th: “HIGHLIGHTS and refine DIRECTION” - Halifax Forum, Maritime Hall - 7 - 9 p.m.
December 7th: “Draft DESIGN Presentation” - Farrell Hall, 276 Windmill Road - 7 - 9 p.m.

The citizen-led Stadium Analysis Steering Committee was selected by Council in March to develop and make recommendations to Council on a stadium business plan, operational plan, site selection, ownership model, facility design and construction methodology relative to achieving the FIFA Women’s World Cup Canada 2015 minimum standards, and serve as the public face of the project for the community.
