 Brooke Basin A3 Master Plan and Environment Assessment

Brooke Drainage Basin A3 is the area east of 8th Avenue West to Georgian Bay and bounded by 18th Street West in the south and 22nd Street West in the north.   The study will review alternatives for improvements to the main watercourse starting at the City/Georgian Bluffs boundary in the North West corner of the study area and extending downstream to the outlet at Kelso Beach Park.  A long term plan to address several drainage concerns along the drainage corridor will be formulated. 

The Municipal Class environment assessment is nearing completion but was placed on hold due to COVID-19.  Public Consultation will start in fall of 2022.
