• In 2009, a Master Plan for Edison Park was approved, involving a complete reconfiguration of the park.
• The approved Fiscal Year 2021/22 CIP program includes funding to develop an updated conceptual plan to reconfigure Edison Park, in order to address changing recreation trends.
• In May 2021, staff engaged RJM Design Group to facilitate community input that would be used to develop a conceptual plan to guide current and future park and recreation development.
