Bobcaygeon Beach Park Redevelopment Public Open House being held on December 6 

Kawartha Lakes – Attend the Public Open House for the Bobcaygeon Beach Park Redevelopment project on Thursday December 6 from 6pm to 8pm at the Bobcaygeon Service Centre (second floor meeting room). The purpose of this meeting is to share the revised concept design with the public.

The initial conceptual design has been revised based on public feedback and comments received at the June 21, 2018 Public Open House and online survey. The revised design will be presented during the December Public Open House.

The design continues to have a focus on water recreation and community use by incorporating outdoor gathering spaces, multi-use pathways, playground structures, riparian shoreline improvements and boat docking. Landscape Planning Limited is leading the design project. 

A revised concept will be available to view under the Major Projects section on the City website by December 7.

For more information, please contact Jenn Johnson, Manager of Parks, Recreation and Culture by calling 705-324-9411 extension 1350 or email jjohnson@kawarthalakes.ca.
