Why We’re Here

  • Part of a City-wide effort to respond to aging public

infrastructure

  • Acting now to prevent unexpected closures by replacing

systems at their end-of-life and prior to their permanent failure; less costly, less disruptive through pro-active renewal

  • Improvements made now will help support the next 20-25

years of use as well as respond to the anticipated population growth in the area

Why We’re Here

  • Investment needed to maintain current facilities + programs

(state of good repair):

  • Clubhouse Requirements: plumbing, lighting, boilers, HVAC system and

furnace all require replacement; kitchen exhaust fan upgrades, etc.

  • Ice Rink Requirements: refrigeration system including compressors,

condenser, chiller, and associated pumps and heat exchanger require replacement due to end of service life; upgrades to mechanical rooms containing this equipment required

  • Ice rink slab headers near end of service life
  • Ice rink slab near end of service life and must be replaced: significant cracking

across its surface jeopardizes its integrity and risks pipe rupture/refrigerant leak, not standard size / doesn’t allow safe resurfacing

  • Zamboni garage requires replacement as existing garage only a temporary

structure

Key Project Benefits

  • Pro-active investment to avoid longer, more costly disruption in future
  • Refurbish and revitalize the Clubhouse space to meet current program

needs, improve space efficiency and health and safety standards with regard to food preparation

  • Address current conflicts between Zamboni and pedestrian routes to

address safety concerns

  • Enable wheelchair accessibility to and from Dufferin Street, the Clubhouse

and rink-space by reconstructing pedestrian pathways

  • Sustainable design by re-use of construction materials, use of more efficient

systems, lighting with LEDs, net increase of trees in the park, etc.

How has public feedback shaped the design?

  • Clubhouse renovation: more functional kitchen, bigger multi-purpose

room, more inclusive washroom facilities, better skate storage, more secure utility room, etc.

  • Park Landscape: more trees, less impermeable hardscape, new

wheelchair accessible entrance to park, better pathways, bigger community garden, more pollinator gardens, more seating including weather-protected outdoor seating, new plaza supporting social gathering and programming, more bike parking, etc.

  • Active Landscape: rinks in more comfortable orientation for players,

rink divider allowing more users/uses, 6 basketball nets (including 2 at child height), more seating, more efficient lighting, more storage, etc.

How has public feedback shaped the design?

  • Working on construction phasing plan to minimize disruption in

park and allow for programming continuity where possible

  • Working on understanding how temporary facilities might support

park programming during construction

  • Working on a strategy for relocating some programming

temporarily to other neighbourhood parks during construction

  • Continuing to meet with the Technical Working Group and

Community Resource Group during final phase of design
