Given the park’s facilities, such as an accessible playground, splash pad, etc., this park is expected to attract residents to the area.  The Town will monitor and respond accordingly as needed.

Professional consultants involved in different phases of the park design have considered the necessary evaluation of environmental conditions. This may include sea level rise, precipitation events, and the development of the park in accordance with environmental guidelines.

As part of Phase 2 development, a Land Use Impact Assessment Report was completed to identify any additional measures that could be considered in the medium to long-term planning horizons to address potential issues with future climate change, including coastal erosion. This will help ensure the continued enjoyment of the park by future generations while also realizing the Town’s objective to create green, environmentally friendly spaces.

This park has been funded jointly by the federal government ($1 million), the provincial government ($1 million), and the Town of Conception Bay South ($2.3 million). The total amount budgeted for the park’s construction is approximately $4.3 million.

In 2016, this property was purchased by the Town for $953,075.

It is anticipated that noise and disruption would not exceed that of other family parks within our town. A park of this nature will be used by many residents, so typical noise from visitors at the splash pad, ice surface, or on playground equipment can be expected. Any special activities or events at the park will adhere to the policies and regulations set out by the Town.
