As the city filed it
This motion is to release Section 42 funds for the design and implementation of a replacement playground structure for the Canoe Landing shared use space used by Jean Lumb Public School, Bishop Macdonell Catholic School, and the Canoe Landing Community Recreation Centre. After two injuries in 2025, the former structure was deemed unsafe and removed. A new playground is needed to provide play opportunities that are safe, creative, and age appropriate.
