The City is improving Jack Goodlad Park with proposed upgrades to the splash pad, playground, basketball courts, bocce ball courts, lighting and associated pathways. The existing single-spray splash pad will be replaced with a larger splash pad with new water play features, and two new basketball courts will be added. The park design will be developed through community engagement.
The timeline is subject to change.
An online survey will be posted on this page in the summer. The survey will ask for your feedback and preferences for the splash pad, playground, courts and park design options. The design team will use this community feedback to develop the final park design.
The results of the survey will also be shared on this page.
This project has been classified as a Consult project based on the International Association for Public Participation Spectrum. This means we collect and consider public feedback on proposed design options to inform the development of a final park design.

There are currently two basketball courts and four bocce ball courts. The splash pad currently includes a single spray nozzle on a concrete base.
