The City is working with communities to collect feedback about upgrades to tennis courts across the city, including improvements to lighting, fencing and court surfaces. The community engagement process will also explore opportunities to introduce new facilities to support the growing sport of pickleball.
The courts selected for this project were chosen based on factors like their condition, accessibility and the goal of ensuring fair distribution across the city, with funding limited to one park per ward. This helps prioritize upgrades in communities that need them most, making sure resources are directed where they are needed.
Construction will take place at several parks simultaneously. The timeline is subject to change.
This project has been classified as a Consult project based on the International Association of Public Participation Spectrum. This means your input will help guide the overall approach to the project and will inform the specific direction taken for each park.
