What’s up with conversations about the cathedral precinct?
Come to a Zoom meeting on Tuesday, February 22, from 4.00 – 5.30 p.m. to find out!
 
Over the past three years, we have had nearly countless discussions about the role and future of our cathedral, our cathedral school, and our diocesan office, and about the kind of space we will need to accommodate our ministries.
 
The fruits of these discussions have been shared with Wiser Projects, our planning consultants. They, in turn, have done extensive research about current municipal plans and policies, as well as  the appetite of local agencies and developers to work with us. They also engaged an architect who has worked closely with us to assess the space on the precinct, with a view to the feasibility of making our cathedral, our school, and the rest of the precinct better serve our hopes and dreams.
 
Wiser Projects is very close to submitting a detailed “Phase One” report – which will describe their findings, and the work we would need to do next to produce an actual “master plan” for the cathedral precinct.
 
The meeting on Tuesday, February 22, at 4.00 p.m. will be an opportunity meet Kaeley and Barb, our planning consultants, and Paul, our consulting architect. They will provide a window on the work they have done to date, and then help us to visualise some exciting ideas that could help us to re-equip, modernize and maximize the space we already have, in addition to considering what new spaces might be necessary.
 
No decisions will be made at this meeting: we are at the “information, questions and feedback” stage of an ongoing process. Once the detailed Phase One report is available, everyone who wishes will have an opportunity to engage with it, and to determine our preparedness to move into Phase Two.  – MAT
