Re:     Bowden Urban Village Community Groups Briefing - Session 3

           on Tuesday 3 August 2010 at 6.00pm - 8.30pm

           at  Bowden Brompton Community Centre, 19 Green Street, Brompton

 Thank you to those who were able to join us for the briefing and discussions on Bowden Urban Village yesterday evening at the Bowden Brompton Community Centre. It was the second of what has developed into a series of discussions in relation to the proposed Bowden Urban Village development on the former Clipsal and Origin Energy sites.

At the first briefing, held on 14 July, we had some interesting and frank discussions in looking at the next steps - milestones and engagement opportunities, the DPA process, cultural heritage mapping, place making and ongoing consultation - recapping on the master plan process and looking at the outcomes of the master plan review.

 We re-convened on 27 July to focus on the guiding principles and governance for project delivery. The guiding principles relate to:  the site; buildings; streets, squares and open spaces; movement/transport; mixed uses; sustainability and community engagement. We agreed that a further session was needed to cover all the principles in the depth that is needed, and a further session beyond that to look in depth at some of the next steps.

 We therefore invite you to join us at the Bowden Brompton Community Centre on Tuesday 3 August 2010 from 6:00pm-8:30pm to continue discussing the principles. Please note that we will be starting at 6.00pm.

 In spreading the word of this briefing, we are emailing key representatives and individuals who were invited and/or attended the briefings on 14 and 27 July.

 We ask that all key representatives canvass other members of the community groups they represent, to ensure that they are advised and have the opportunity to participate.

 We would be grateful if, for the purposes of catering and room layout, the key representative of each group invited could respond to advise the names and numbers of their organisation's participants by close of business Friday, 30 July 2010 - to either the Bowden Urban Village project email address or 1800 number - below.

 As with previous sessions, light refreshment will be provided, being sandwiches, biscuits, tea, coffee and juice. 

 If anyone has any queries in relation to the briefing please contact us.

 Kind regards
