Champlain Park Renewal

Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2022 12:04 PM

Update, Jan. 13, 2022:

Construction at Champlain Park has experienced significant delays and we thank you for your patience.

At this time, the entire park is still closed. Specific areas of the park will be open to the public in the coming weeks. We expect that the playground and pathways will be open for use in February 2022. The baseball diamond will remain closed until at least August 2022.

Work on the ball diamond, additional asphalt, and sodding and seeding will start in Spring 2022 when weather allows.

The City of Burlington is renewing Champlain Park. Proposed Improvements 

This project includes:

  • New playground equipment and swings
  • New baseball backstop, dugouts, and players’ benches
  • New park furniture
  • Repaved asphalt paths
  • Drainage improvements

In 2020 the old swings were removed from Champlain Park because of a safety issue.

What to Expect During Construction

Your safety during construction is our priority.

Champlain Park will be closed during construction. Construction fence will be in...

City Hall Renovation

Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2022 12:01 PM

City Hall Modernization Project

Work to renovate the main floor of City Hall is complete. The new open space provides easy access to customer service counters for Service Burlington and Building, Renovating and Licensing, as of July 11, 2013.

The City Hall Modernization Project is one of 22 recommendations from the Red Tape Red Carpet Task Force report, and was approved by City Council in September 2019. In keeping with the City’s focus on customer experience, this project will create a more open, customer-facing area on the first floor of City Hall.

Read report EICS-05-21 to learn more about the project.

Features of the main floor design include:

  • a new 40-foot bridge across the opening of the Atrium with glass railings
  • a wider entrance from Locust Street with sliding doors for improved accessibility
  • a light-filled lobby featuring a larger, furnished customer area that can double as a space for City events as required
  • customer service counters with adjustable height, for improved accessibility

City View Park

Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2022 11:58 AM

City View Park Pavilion is now complete City View Park information

Since approval of the park Master Plan, phased implementation of City View Park (2500 Kerns Rd. Burlington) has occurred including three artificial turf fields, creative playground, parking, pond/wetland, trails, natural restoration and a park maintenance facility. 

The year-round building will support existing and future planned uses in the park. 

It is a key feature for Bruce Trail hikers to meet or continue their adventure and a significant milestone towards the completion of the City View Park Master Plan.

  • The design of the building features sustainability, water and energy efficiencies and is a symbolic connection between new construction and the unique natural setting of the escarpment
  • Green building measures have been incorporated using a wood structure, an onsite well filtered for drinking water and onsite sewerage disposal system
  • The building does not use any fossil fuels in its operation. By using solar power, the...
