Scadding Court and Alexandra Park will be holding two public meetings at the
Scadding Court Community Centre to discuss plans and priorities for redevelopment of the areas.
"Scadding Court Community Centre, the
Sanderson Library
and the Alexandra Park Neighbourhood Learning Centre are starting to
plan for the future by exploring options for redeveloping the important
community assets at Bathurst and Dundas," the ward's councillor,
Adam Vaughan, said in a Dec. 23 email to his constituents.
The development process is currently in its first phase, a feasibility study conducted by
Levitt Goodman Architects,
begun in October, of which these meetings are a part. Issues such as
traffic, parking, zoning and community space requirements are all being
considered, and the study is due to be issued next month.
After
that, there will be a business planning phase, and finally a decision
about what tack to take, which will involve more community
consultations. There is no announced time line for this third phase, or
for the redevelopment itself.
The meetings will convene on Jan.
26 at 6pm, and on Feb. 1 at 7pm. Scadding Court Community Centre is at
707 Dundas Street West, on the southeast corner of Bathurst and Dundas.
