Site plan

During the June 17 Council meeting, staff presented the site plan and initial playground designs. The site plan identifies the playground replacement, the sand play area and an orchard and picnic area. The Grand River Accessibility Advisory Committee (GRAAC) also emphasized the importance of prioritizing improvements to the built environment and provided an update on their input on the design of the playground.

Council approved the funding to begin construction on the expansion of the playground this summer.
