As identified in the Township's Parks and Trails Standards Manual, Community and Destination scaled parks are to have Development Plans established to assist with 10-year Capital Budget planning. These parks may include active and/or passive uses, typically having intensive recreational uses such as sports fields, sports courts, playgrounds and water play, amenity/support buildings and parking facilities.

The identified Community and Destination Township Parks include:

In 2025, staff plan to work with the community on Development Plans for Hanna Park and Milford Bay Community Centre Park as they each have amenities requiring replacement in the near future such as playgrounds, etc. Upon community consultation and finalized concept plans, the 10-year Capital Plan can be updated to reflect the community needs and desires for both properties should there be any changes from the current amenities provided.

In 2026, staff will conduct similar Development Plans exercises with the communities of Bala, Torrance and Walker’s Point for Jaspen Park, Bala Sports Park, Torrance Ball Diamond and Walker’s Point Community Centre Park.

    The landscape concepts for Hanna Park and Milford Bay Community Centre are here!

    From gathering community input throughout the landscape design process, on December 10, 2025, Council substituted the Action Item as per staff's recommendations (in Staff Report OS-2025-057) that related to improving the layout of the parks, to include:

    • Hanna Park
      • Move boat parking dock (16) to other side of point to allow the top end to remain a quiet area; and
      • Move painted games (14) to the court versus the walking path.
    • Milford Bay
      • Move half court near playground (12) and combine with the addition to current courts (26);
      • Allow outdoor washroom (27) to be located in previous half court near playground (12).


    The landscape designs (below) are set to be updated to reflect the latest community input (above) and will be brought back to Council at a future date.

    *Note: Community engagement on specific playground structures and designs of those, will be open early 2026. With the importance significance of the Hanna Park playground to this community, staff are engaging with the vendor to preserve as much of the existing playground as possible in these new designs.
