Fred Johnson Park
Residents have contacted my office to inform us about the presence of garbage in the treed area of Fred Johnson Park, as well as a city stop sign. I have reached out to the Parks Supervisor to address this issue. I have received confirmation that the stop sign has been removed, and Parks staff will take care of the garbage.

Scarborough Village Park Splash Pad Project Update
Due to unexpectedly high bid submissions, the Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Scarborough Village Park Splash Pad and Playground resulted in the design services contract not being awarded. City staff anticipate awarding the design scope of work in early 2023, and the design and community engagement phases are planned for spring-summer 2023. A project webpage request has been submitted, and staff will share this information as soon as possible. If you have any questions or comments, please don't hesitate to contact my office.
