Park Renovations & “NEW” Splash Pad<br />
<strong>The</strong> Town completed a town-wide study to develop a Community Parks, Recreation & Culture Master Plan Study<br />
in fall of 2008 with the goal to articulate the planning and developmental needs and priorities associated with<br />
recreation programs, facilities, culture, parks, trails and open space. <strong>The</strong> result of these analyses are over eighty<br />
strategic actions. One of the actions identified in the plan was the upgrade and renovation of existing park<br />
facilities and in particular facilities within the Holland Landing area, specifically Holland Landing Community<br />
Centre Park, Parkway Park (formerly River Drive Park) Grist Mill Park and Sunset Green Space. <strong>The</strong>se parks<br />
sites are all recognized for their value as local amenity spaces and as a result have been scheduled for renovation<br />
during the 2010 construction season. Renovations will include the replacement of existing playground equipment<br />
and improvements to other features of the parks, including the addition of a water or splash feature at Parkway<br />
Park and the Holland Landing Community Centre.
