“Our Shared \u014ct\u0101karo Avon River Vision<\/strong>
The river is part of us and we are part of the river.
It is a living part of our city.
A place of history and culture<\/strong>
where people gather, play, and celebrate together.
A place of learning and discovery<\/strong>
where traditional knowledge, science and technology meet.
A place for ideas and innovation<\/strong>
where we create new ways of living and connecting.
OUR VISION IS FOR THE RIVER TO CONNECT US TOGETHER \u2013<\/strong>
with each other, with nature and with new possibilities.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Draft OARC Regeneration Plan: Proposed Places\/Visitor Experiences<\/strong>
In the Draft OARC Regeneration Plan, based on “Our Shared \u014ct\u0101karo Avon River Vision” above, do we have a balanced Plan?
– Are there enough places\/visitor experiences for history and culture?
– Are there enough places\/visitor experiences for learning and discovery?
– Are there enough places\/visitor experiences for ideas and innovation?
– Are the proposed places\/visitor experiences adding to the “Garden City, City of Exploration” theme?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
