Garnet Graham Park is an important waterfront public space in Fenelon Falls, providing opportunities to enjoy the waterfront, recreation, community activities and the natural setting.
The City is exploring the future redevelopment of the park and local municipal boat launch. Three master plan concepts have been prepared for public review. Each concept illustrates a different approach to the park layout, waterfront amenities, Water Street and the municipal boat launch.
The concepts are intended to support discussion and gather feedback. They are not final designs and this consultation is not a vote to select one concept exactly as shown. The City may combine, modify or further develop elements from one or more concepts when preparing a preferred plan. Community feedback will be considered together with technical, operational, accessibility, environmental and financial considerations.
All three concepts have been developed with accessibility and the requirements of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) in mind. Accessibility will continue to be considered as the project moves through future design stages.
How your Feedback Will be Used
• Identify the park features, amenities and waterfront experiences that are most important to the community.
• Understand community perspectives on the location and future role of the municipal boat launch.
• Gather feedback on the potential use of Water Street as a more pedestrian-oriented market and community space.
• Identify concerns, opportunities and ideas that should be considered as the concepts are refined.
Following public consultation, the City will review the feedback and use it to help refine a preferred direction for Garnet Graham Park. The preferred direction may draw from more than one concept and will remain subject to further technical review, detailed design, approvals and budget considerations.
NOTE: The survey closes Thursday, November 5th at 11:59 EST.
