VICTORIA – The Vancouver Island Health Authority (VIHA) invites anyone who is interested in the future development of the Royal Jubilee Hospital campus to attend an Open House and a Planning Workshop to learn about, and provide input into, the site’s future development.
The Open House gives the public an opportunity to hear about ongoing development at the Royal Jubilee Hospital and discuss the site design process. Attendees can learn about opportunities for future involvement and preview design principles that will guide this work.
VIHA staff will be on hand to answer questions, discuss the planning process and listen to your thoughts, issues and ideas. Everyone is welcome and there is no registration required for the Open House.
A free Planning Workshop will follow the Open House for those who want to participate in a more in-depth forum. Participants will work in small groups on topics of their choice using maps and other tools to capture their ideas. Registration is required and can be done online or by phone: (250) 370-8021.
Topics will include:
- Future building design, size and location
- Street frontage and character
- Areas for future expansion and areas to be protected
- Vehicle and pedestrian flow through
- The natural environment - green space, trees and Bowker Creek
