We want to hear from you!

We invite all community members, stakeholders, and interested parties to participate in our Online Public Consultation regarding the redevelopment of Bishop’s Park.

Before completing the survey, please review the Functional Diagram. The diagram outlines a preliminary layout for potential site features. Each key area is labeled for reference (e.g., seating areas, open spaces, pathway, drinking fountain, etc.). The survey asks questions about the proposed features for the park redevelopment.

Your feedback is important and will help shape the final decisions for Bishop's Park.

Survey deadline: November 30, 2025
