St. John’s<\/strong> – On Saturday, October 30th from 10am to 1pm. a public dialogue will be held in the Foran room of city hall. This public dialogue is not an initiative of council to\u00a0 review of our out-of-date municipal plan, but a continuation of the work of HappyCity.ca<\/a>, who organized a public forum on smart growth in downtown St. John’s back in February. Since February, Happy City has been using their newly updated website<\/a>, facebook<\/a>, youtube<\/a>, and twitter<\/a> to “inform and encourage dialogue about development and growth in St. John’s.”<\/p>\n

Happy City is a perfect example of a group who simply wants to give everyone the opportunity to voice their opinion on the future of St. John’s, encouraging people to do so online<\/a>, or at the forum on Saturday.<\/p>\n

What:<\/strong> “Your City Your Ideas” Public Dialogue<\/p>\n

When:<\/strong> Saturday, October 30th 10am-1pm<\/p>\n

Where:<\/strong> The Foran Room, St. John’s City Hall, New Gower St.<\/a><\/p>\n

Facilitated by Bui Petersen from the Centre for Negotiation and Dialogue<\/a>, the session will use a novel approach to a public meeting. At the outset, participants will have the opportunity to suggest issues that are most important to them. These topics will then be discussed in a series of “break-out” group sessions, and participants will be free to choose which discussions they wish to join.<\/p>\n

As Bui puts it, “Not only will citizens get to voice their thoughts on what is important for the city, they will literally get to set the agenda.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So come on down on Saturday to share your ideas for the future of St. John’s, or post them online. Either way, make sure to join the dialogue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
