NEWS RELEASE

CITY OF WATERLOO

*************************

The city installed Lions Lagoon in the early 1990s in Waterloo Park east. Constructed over a former outdoor swimming pool that required repair, it is the only splash pad facility that exists in Waterloo at present. Over the years, Lions Lagoon has undergone numerous repairs to maintain functionality. However, the useful life cycle of this facility has been reached. As part of the public consultation process that is now taking place with respect to the future of Silver Lake shoreline in Waterloo Park, where Lions Lagoon exists, the city sought feedback on a proposed replacement water play area on the west side of Waterloo Park. Community feedback provided important input into the development of design concepts for a new water play area that is expected to be in place for the 2020 summer season.

The proposed design includes a new water play area, washroom facilities, multiple shade structures and seating. This public information centre will be held in conjunction with the information centre taking place to share the final design for Silver Lake and the surrounding area. Details are as follows:
