The City Renewal Authority (CRA) has appointed a ‘place management team’ to help improve the public environment in and around the Dickson Group Centre.
Chief Executive at CRA, Malcolm Snow said Dickson was the second location within the City Renewal Precinct to have a dedicated place manager appointed.
“Capital Space Innovation, represented by Jhay and Tiina Mann, has been contracted to provide place management services following a public tender process,” Mr Snow said.
“Jhay and Tiina are former local business owners and have a long-standing commitment to the Dickson area,” he said.
“Jhay and Tiina have contributed to community events and movements for Dickson including Jhay being a former Dickson town team president.”
Mr Snow said it was good to have Capital Space Innovation on board to assist with the continued revitalisation of the Dickson Group Centre.
“Jhay has been an active member of the Dickson business community for a number of years and his enthusiasm for making Dickson better has been influential in a number of place improvements and events over recent years,” he said.
“Dickson is an important centre, not only for the local community, but also for many people in Canberra.”
He said the new place managers would play an important role working with Government, the local community and local businesses to help Dickson reached its potential as a premier destination for Canberrans and visitors.
