The 2 proposals given to the public to comment on.
The results of a public survey on proposed Connaught school design concepts are now available online. Just 2 options were presented, both looking fairly similar. There were 72 responses. Top concerns included wanting a front entrance that reflected the original heritage building, parking lot encroachment on historic 13th Ave. and loss of green space. There was a strong call to maintain the heritage look of the original school, and to ensure the school is built in a timely fashion.
