Reduced Service Levels in Public Spaces
See the May 11
memo to Council for more detail.
The City is committed to sustaining a base level of service throughout our parks and open space system that still provides a quality, safe and enjoyable public experience. Due to reduced staff levels, residents may notice the following changes:
- waterfront parks and beach, downtown public areas, main trails and playgrounds will continue to be serviced for maintenance and safety work, including lighting, horticulture installation and watering. A basic level of grounds maintenance will also be performed in these areas.
- There will be fewer flower displays this summer, especially along boulevards and beds throughout the city.
- Parks and public space grass will be mowed less frequently.
- Seasonal, public space garbage bins will be more limited and removal of waste from these bins may not happen as frequently as usual.
- No stumping operations of removed boulevard or park trees, or any proactive pruning, will take place.
- No minor capital projects, upgrades and improvements will occur in spring/summer 2020
- No seasonal washrooms are open at this time. The City may be able to open select public washroom locations for reduced hours at a later date.
The
Parks & Recreation Strategic Master Plan (June 2010) establish d a strategic framework for recreation and parks’ services, programs and facilities that will guide future decision making with regard to policy, operations, maintenance, and capital improvements to the year 2019.
The
Official Map of Barrie details the location of school, parks, trails and includes an enlargement of Barrie’s waterfront. The map is also available at City Hall,
