Public consultation for this project has now been completed. Thank you for your input.
Thank you to everyone who attended our public open house at MEC in February and completed our online survey. We are ready to move forward with the next steps in our Lynnmouth Park Improvement project.
What We Heard
Generally, there was an even split between respondents supported and respondents who opposed changes to the park.
Supporters liked:
the convenient, contained and formal off-leash areas
the amenities such as seating and dog waste bins
the proposed landscape plan that focuses on native plants and includes a pollinator garden at the park entrance
the rationale for the on-leash trail designation and acknowledged the importance for all user groups to feel safe in the park.
Opponents were concerned:
that the off-leash areas were too small and would result in degradation of the grass and impact site drainage
that the additional fencing would negatively impact the aesthetics of the park.

by Dina,
The first phase of the trail and habitat improvements in Lynnmouth Park focused on re-establishing streamside habitat with native trees and shrub plantings along the west bank of Lynn Creek. Lynn Creek is an important salmon bearing stream and the newly planted vegetation helps support local fish and wildlife populations.
A number of community stewardship events were held to remove invasive species such as Japanese Knotweed and Himalayan Blackberry which made way for the installation of hundreds new native plants.
To help establish the new vegetation and protect the environmentally sensitive creek side area, fencing was added which includes three formal access points to the creek.
