Residents in the west end of Windsor will have a say in the redevelopment of a neighbourhood landmark.
The city of Windsor is seeking suggestions and input for the renewal of Bradley Park, and has begun a virtual open house to share the proposed master plan for the space.
Mayor Drew Dilkens said the redevelopment of Bradley Park is key to the ongoing evolution of the Sandwich Towne area.
"The city of Windsor is committed to continuously improving our parks and green spaces," said Dilkens. "Bradley Park is in the heart of Sandwich Towne and is at the center of a lot of community renewal, and the city of Windsor needs to step up to provide the amenities that families are looking for."
Ward 2 Councillor Fabio Costante, whose district includes Bradley Park, advocated for the use of ward funding to begin short-term improvements to the greenspace, which is not due for more capital funding until 2025.
"Shortly after being elected and after much consultation with the community, I made it my mission to prioritize Bradley Park by advocating that it be part of the City's capital plan and by allocating my ward funds to the park," said Costante. "Thankfully, Council did approve Bradley Park in the capital plan at our 2020 budget meeting, slated for 2025 and beyond, and as mentioned, I will be investing my ward funds this year recognizing the importance of the park, its vicinity to so many families in Sandwich Towne and its wonderful history."
Residents can provide feedback by taking a short survey, found on the city's official website. There is also a video explaining the master plan.
The survey is open through March 5.
