KINGSTON REGIONAL SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT CENTRE ARCHIVE
Archive: Stakeholders Advisory Group
The LVEC Stakeholders Advisory Group is quite specialized in nature and - with the exception of representation from adjacent neighbourhoods - the selection process lent itself to one of individual recruitment. In the case of adjacent residents, a process will be established wherein they appoint their own representatives to the advisory group.
LVEC project management staff will directly approach potential user groups and known interested parties for representatives from the following communities of interest:
- The Kingston Chamber of Commerce
- The Grand Theatre
- Queen's Entertainment Agency
- Kingston Downtown BIA!
- Kingston Frontenacs
- Kingston Economic Development Corporation
- Kingston Construction Association
- Banking/Financial Services Sector
- Radio, Television
- Concerts: Representative from Tragically Hip
- Leeuwarden Condominium's Board of Directors
- Frontenac Village
- McBurney Park Neighbourhood Association
- LVEC Tenants
- Bajus Place Condominium Association
- Town Home Kingston (Rideaucrest Towers)
- Two representatives of the general public not associated with any of the user groups
The Stakeholders Advisory Group will work with LVEC project staff and the Steering Committee to ensure that the functional design and associated amenities of the sports and entertainment centre address the needs of concert and show acts, organizers of trade shows, exhibit space and community events, television and radio broadcasting, the Kingston Frontenacs Major Junior A Hockey Franchise, and the residents in the immediate area of the complex.
The Stakeholders Advisory Group will help ensure the entertainment uses of the Large Venue Entertainment Centre are complementary to entertainment organized by management of the Grand Theatre, Queen's University, and the Downtown Kingston!
