We are looking for ways to improve water quality and reduce flood risks through stormwater measures. We are also planning upgrades to the park so that it better serves your neighbourhood. After consultation with the community this winter, we have prepared concept designs for the stormwater measures.
About the open house:
- Learn more about the project and review design options. We will share several designs based on the community's input throughout 2023.
- Drop in anytime. Staff and consultants will be available to receive your feedback and answer questions. There will be short presentations at 5:30 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.
- Reep Green Solutions will host a workshop on changes you can make in your yard to nurture nature. Join them from 7:15–8:15 p.m. and learn how to make Country Hills a Rain Smart Neighbourhood. Indicate your interest in the workshop when you register!
- We will have children’s activities and child-minding.
- Free vegetarian chili bar provided by Aandanjige Café.
If you can't attend this in-person event, you can participate virtually. We will post materials on this webpage for you to review and comment on close to the event.
This project was approved by the Ministry of the Environment in 2016 as part of the Integrated Stormwater Management Master Plan (ISWM-MP). If community consultations lead to required project modifications, we will seek to amend the relevant planning tools -- in this case, the Class Environmental Assessment, under which the ISWM-MP was completed.
