The Canada Lands Corporation (CLC), the crown agency charged
with developing an urban renewal plan for the site, will hold
its second open house and public consultation session on
November 29th. Doors at the Aviation Museum will open at 5:30
p.m. for the ‘open house’ portion. Presentations start at 7:00
p.m., followed, I expect, by a question and answer session. The
first public meeting, at the end of June, was attended by
approximately 500 very interested residents. (The power-point
presentations, first by CLC and its consulting team then by
CARAD – Community Action for Rockcliffe Airbase Development-
and, finally, a video recording of the first ½ hour of the Q&A
period that evening, can be found at
www.rideau-rockcliffe.com for those who missed the June
meeting). Since that meeting, terms of reference for the
‘Community Design Plan’ were developed and accepted by City
Council. They are posted on CLC’s web-site (www.clc.ca). The
intervening months have also seen the formation of a Public
Advisory Committee (PAC), chaired by Professor Caroline Andrew
of the University of Ottawa’s School of Political Studies. The
full membership (which includes Alex Macklin and Iola Price of
the RPRA) can be found on CLC’s web-site. The PAC membership, in
addition to representatives of the surrounding communities, also
includes representatives of groups with City-wide interests and
mandates such as various housing groups, Ottawa’s Forests and
Greenspace Advisory Committee, and Transport 2000.
