In September of 2020, Parks Recreation and Culture (PRC) was approached by members of the Rotary Club of Port Hope outlining the desire to complete a substantial project for their upcoming one hundredth (100th) anniversary in 2022. Rotary brought forward a number of different options and, after working with staff, decided they would like to enhance the fish ladder park area. The goal is to create a unique focal point for both visitors and residents to enjoy, while recognizing the significant contributions of Rotary in the community.
The concept proposal and scope is to remove some of the downed trees and invasive species impacting the site, as well as the overgrowth of scrub brush. The trails will be designed in such a way to allow for drainage and will be constructed using accessible wood fiber chip. The concept drawings show three (3) look out points that will allow viewing of the river and three (3) gazebo’s in the area for enjoyment of all visitors and residents, as well as additional plantings, benches and trail signage.
Municipality of Port Hope staff, the Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority, and the Rotary Club will continue to work to completing the final design for the area. This is inclusive of community and committee feedback. Please use the form below to complete your feedback.
