The County of Prince Edward is hosting a kick-off meeting for the park improvements at Roblin Lake Park (38 Coleman Street) on Monday, July 21.
The meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. at the park between the ball diamond and the playground.
The municipality is developing a plan to make improvements to the park. The public is welcome to attend the kick-off meeting to learn more and share their feedback.
The Roblin Lake Park design is one-of-ten parkland projects across Prince Edward County that are being supported by funds from the Parkland Reserve. Provincial legislation requires municipalities to spend a certain portion of funds in their Parkland Reserve. The funds in this reserve come from developers who provide cash instead of dedicating parkland to the municipality. Municipalities are required to spend those funds in the same geographic area as the development.
Roblin Lake Park currently has playground equipment, a small beach for swimming, green space, a baseball diamond equipped with lights, a basketball/multi-use court and picnic tables. There is also a washroom facility onsite that is open from May to October.
