Neighbourhood engagement
In 2021 the community shared their input into what amenities they would like to see in Leighland Park through a survey on Get Involved Burlington. City staff used the input to design the park renewal plan.
In August 2022 residents were invited to chat with City staff and view the Leighland Park renewal plan at a neighbourhood event in the park.
