Winter update on Playgrounds and Sports Fields
The Township wishes to advise members of the public that staff will be posting signage that the playgrounds and sports fields are not maintained during the winter months and are considered closed until otherwise stated.
King Street Park update
King Street Park has been under construction for several weeks and the project is approaching substantial completion. The Township is strongly encouraging the community, parents and students to not use the park over the winter so that come spring, minimal repairs will be necessary.
The park has been hydro seeded which is a process where grass will eventually grow in the spring. Winter disruption of the hydro seeding can result in prolonging the growing process.
The clay has been placed on the track and would benefit from minimal foot traffic as it settles over the winter months.
The playground structures will be installed and new wood fiber placed around the new equipment but this area will have soft edges and is not ready for foot traffic in some areas. As mentioned above, play structures and sports fields are not inspected or maintained during the winter period and the Township ask that caution be used if using the equipment over the winter period.
Enjoy all winter has to offer and we look forward to opening the playgrounds again in the spring after we carefully inspect and declare them open.
