Following an observation of increased traffic and parking concerns within the Chautauqua neighbourhood and in response to concerns raised by residents in the surrounding area and a delegation by the Friends of Ryerson Park at the January 18, 2021, Committee of the Whole meeting, Staff issued a public survey to solicit feedback related to Ryerson Park.
Niagara-on-the-Lake is welcoming of all visitors and encourages the use of its well-kept parks and green space and realizes that there may be some local impacts to the increasing use of such spaces.
Therefore, the purpose of the survey was to determine the use, and potential hindrances to the use of Ryerson Park, as well as identify any concerns for neighboring properties within the Chautauqua area.
The survey is now closed. Thank you for your feedback!Your feedback has been and will continue to be essential in helping Staff and Council determine potential next steps for this area of Town.
