The goal of this project is to:

• Enhance stormwater management through improvements to water quality and quantity controls by retrofitting the existing stormwater ponds
• Enhance Flood and Erosion control to downstream watercourses, including Western Creek
• Reduce overall phosphorus loading to Lake Simcoe and its tributaries
• Improve the Natural Heritage system by adding natural features like wetlands and reforestation
• Include a trail system for enjoyment by residents

Site Investigations

To determine possible stormwater and natural heritage improvements to the site, LSRCA has undertaken multiple site investigations to characterize the current site conditions and effectiveness of the ponds in their current state. A consultant (Aquafor Beech Ltd.) has been retained by the LSRCA to develop the design to enhance the site.
