Scenic Ridge Park Plan

Thank you for your participation!

Scenic Ridge Park is a 3 acre park located at 1 Scenic Ridge Gate, Paris and is considered a 'Neighbourhood Park'. Please see the conceptual plan and features below.

The concept plan includes planned features such as:

• Gateway feature - this feature introduces users to the park and the neighbourhood
• Playground equipment - junior and senior play structures (ages 2-12)
• Swings - including 2 belt swings, 1 bucket swing and a saucer swing
• Multi-use sport court - a 80ft x 40ft court to be used for activities such as ball hockey, half-court basketball & soccer
• Fitness equipment
• Walkways - 2.5m asphalt walkways through the park with site furnishings including benches, waste receptacles and more
• Trees - larger shade trees, vegetative buffer to provide privacy for adjacent properties but maintain views
• Park amenities

The budget for the park is $260,000. New parks are supported through development charges that account for 90% of the budget, with the municipality covering the remainder of the costs.

The park name proposed will honour Jay Wells, a former NHL hockey player who grew up in Paris.

Other parks being developed in the area are:

• Mile Hill Meadows Park (35 Edgar Place) which will have a junior soccer field and playground.
• Summit Park (98 Lorne Card Cres.), a parkette located at 16 Arlington Parkway. Summit Park Plan consultation is now available.
• A larger 4.55 acre park in the Grandville subdivision next to 73 Grandville Circle which may be constructed in the next few years.
