Ballou Park in Glenmore is set for an upgrade and expansion in 2022.

It’s exciting news for residents in the area, which is why the City of Kelowna is hoping those same residents will help with the new design.
 

In June, the City put out a call to residents, asking to hear how people currently use the park and how they’d like to use it in the future.

Now, there's only a few days to share feedback on the Glenmore park before the online survey closes at the end of the day on Sunday.

“Neighbourhood parks offer social and recreational benefits for residents,” said Amy Nyhof, landscape design technician. 

“This park currently has a playground and community garden that will stay but we are looking to residents for input on other proposed improvements.” 

Current options for the newly designed Ballou Park include an adventure playground, an entry plaza, perimeter pathway and fencing, a trail connection to Knox Mountain Park and more.

Anyone who wants to give feedback can do so on the City of Kelowna website until Sunday, July 11.

Registered participants can leave questions for the City planners involved with this project and even receive updates on the park’s progress if they so choose.
