Recreation and Leisure Services Master Plan Open House, November 30th

The notification below was sent out by the municipality last week. This PIC is YOUR chance to respond to the Master Plan results to date. Remember that the information the Consultants are collecting will be used by Council to formulate its Action Plans for the Beach and other areas in the community. If you are in the area or able to attend please take the opportunity to do so.


LSCA will be notifying the consultants and council that this process is not appropriate for all rate payers as many are seasonal and have NO chance to respond to this stuff. This is not fair or reflective of the entire community.

Recreation and Leisure Services Master Plan Open House, November 30th

The Municipality of Lambton Shores has retained Monteith Brown Planning Consultants to assist with the preparation of a Recreation and Leisure Services Master Plan. The Master Plan will provide the necessary public policy framework to manage and develop its parks, open spaces, recreation and leisure services, programs, events, facilities and amenities.

Through input provided by community groups, residents, Council, municipal staff and other stakeholders, the Master Plan will provide direction for decision making, policy development and capital investment through 2020.

A Public Information Centre is being held on November 30th 2010 at the Thedford Village Complex (109 Pearl Street, Thedford) from 3:30pm – 7:30pm. This open house-style meeting will provide residents the opportunity to review and comment on the draft Recreation and Leisure Services Master Plan.
