“We know Stoney Point/Pointe-aux-Roches residents have been eagerly awaiting the reconstruction of this park, and we are thrilled to see it move forward. The plan is a product of years of community input, and we appreciate everyone who took the time to share their vision,” said Mayor Tracey Bailey.

Under Lakeshore’s Parks Master Plan, the park is categorized as a “Community Park.” Community Parks lie at the hearts of Lakeshore’s communities and provide year-round access to amenities.

“This isn’t just an investment in a park. Now, more than ever, community members are looking for affordable and accessible spaces to gather and connect. This is an investment in our communities, accessibility, and the health and well-being of our residents,” Mayor Bailey added.

Barrineti Construction Ltd. was the winning bidder. The total cost of the project will be $4,972,913.43, including applicable HST. Construction is expected to start in 2025.
