Here's what to look forward to:
- Restoration of the natural woodland and wetland in the centre of the park, including management of invasive species, protecting it for future generations
- A boardwalk through the natural area which will allow better connectivity across the wetlands
- A new pedestrian bridge across the north end of Mill Pond to connect the trail from the Mill Street entry area to the Upper Mill Pond area, creating a connected loop within the park
- A “spine trail” that will connect the entire 19 hectare park, from the southeast corner to the northwest corner, with seating areas at points of interest
- A new meadow area at the north end of the park, connecting Mill Pond Park to Stavert Park
- A new park centre building with improved washroom facilities, gallery space, storage space and a potential cafe space to better support the events in the park
- New amenities including pickleball courts, an outdoor ice skating rink and outdoor fitness equipment
- Enhanced tennis courts, playground and gazebo
- Additional parking near Stavert Park
