The park design will be developed through community engagement.

    Level of Engagement

    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.

    The Jack Goodlad Park splash pad, playground, basketball courts and bocce ball courts are located on the west side of the park, close to Pharmacy Road.

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

    The playground currently includes:

    • two swing sets, with:
      • four swings for ages two to five
      • four swings for ages five and up
    • three climbing structures with slides and monkey bars
    • a jungle gym climbing structure
    • spring rider toys
    • a spring seesaw
    • sand under all play areas

    The new play equipment and pathway connecting to the playground area will comply with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA). Learn more about how playgrounds are made accessible.
