Proposed multi-sports court area to accommodate a variety of games, sports and activities.
These sites were selected through recommendations from residents. The goals of refresh projects are to modernize the areas and improve the safety, bio-diversity, and accessibility.
Once designs are finalized, construction is likely to begin in late summer or early fall. During construction, residents should expect minimal disruption. Due to a short construction season, work may be performed during evenings and over weekends, but we will make sure to maintain public access.
Approval and financing for the redevelopment were provided in the 2021 and 2022 budgets.
