Municipal boat launches, which were previously closed to the public, will be reopened
effective Saturday, May 16, 2020 based on recent Provincial direction.
Mark Jensen, Director of Community & Development Services advises that "despite this
positive news, and just in time for the long weekend, the public should continue to
practice a minimum 2 m (6 ft) physical distance separation." The City also notes that
other outdoor municipal recreational amenities throughout the community continue to be
closed at this time, as per the ongoing Provincial Emergency Order. Should this
situation change moving forward, the public will be advised through subsequent media
releases.
The City wishes everyone a safe long weekend out on the water.
