Victoria Park Master Plan

The City is preparing a Victoria Park Master Plan to address the growing needs of the community. The plan will establish a renewed vision for the use of the park over the next twenty years. Owen Sound residents, as well as local clubs, organizations and individuals who use the park are invited to attend meetings planned over the next few months and provide their input.

The City has hired Benj Albrecht of Benj Art Inc. Landscape Architect to undertake the master plan. He will facilitate the first public meeting and visioning session on February 10, 2011.

To ensure the Master Plan truly reflects the community’s needs, we need to hear from the public! By attending, residents and key stakeholders will have the opportunity to discuss ideas, ask questions, and help create the best plan possible.
