Park Facilities Improvement Plan
In April 2024, the City Council approved the 2024-26 City Council Priorities and Objectives document. One of the objectives was to develop a Park Facilities Improvement Plan that will:
- Assess the age and condition of park facilities,
- Prioritize Park facility improvements,
- Identify current and future sources of funding for proposed park facility improvement, and
- Outline a public engagement process for the development of park facility improvement projects.
The Park Facilities Improvement Plan was developed by the Community Services Department in partnership with the Recreation and Human Services Department. City staff assessed each park and the amenities at each location. The focus of the assessments was to evaluate the age and condition of the amenities and to develop and prioritize park facility improvements. Staff focused on long-term amenities that require significant funding and resources. The amenities evaluated included:
- playground equipment,
- restroom buildings,
- safety and security lighting,
- pedestrian pathways and parking lots (hardscape),
- sports courts, and
- sports field lighting.
The assessment did not focus on maintenance items that are handled as part of routine maintenance; however, maintenance concerns were identified.
