Creek renovation and expansion project.

Background Information

Parks and Recreation staff have been actively working with Vic Davies
Architects over the last several months to develop a concept plan for
the renovation and expansion of Hyde.Creek. This plan addresses many
of the issues identified in our 1991 Master Plan. We have also
actively involved a group of community members (including two youths)
in the development of this concept plan.

The resulting concept plan is very exciting and has been received
well by all those involved in the project. We are now ready to move
into refining the concept and developing design drawings, and require
City Council's approval to do so.

As a matter of interest, this phase of the project will also include
a public information process.
