Dunsmuir Park Conceptual Master Plan

A master planning process for Dunsmuir Community Park was completed in 2016. Through the planning process, the community identified the following improvements and additions they wish to see at Dunsmuir Community Park:
  1. Improve court facilities (sport court and tennis courts)
  2. Provide off-road parking
  3. Improve sight lines into the park
  4. Provide a small traditional playground, with area for future expansion
  5. Provide washroom facilities
  6. Provide informal picnic area with tables
  7. Investigate the feasibility of developing walking/ biking trails through the park
The approved park conceptual plan, illustrated below, includes the following elements:
Phase 1 - New sports court with permimeter fencing (basketball, pickleball, ball hockey), new driveway access, off-street parking lot and entrance sign.

Phase 2 - Playground (2-5 and 5-12 ages groups), swings, concrete paths, porta potty with surround, plantings, shade structure, picnic tables, and benches.

Phase 1 is now complete - The next step will be to complete the planning for Phase 2 and ensure the project is shovel-ready, poised to take advantage of all grant-funding opportunities when they become available.
