City reveals concept designs for Court Street park

The City of Hamilton today announced that a concept drawing has been approved for the Court and Dundonald Streets property. Making the announcement was Mayor of Hamilton, Mr. Graeme Outerbridge.

Mayor Outerbridge stated, “During a meeting held last week, the City of Hamilton Council approved concepts and gave approval to the City Engineer to move to the drawing of plans stage for the property located on the north west corner of Court and Dundonald Streets. We anticipate getting costs for this project in time for the figures to be included in the 2014 budget. This means the project will start and hopefully be completed within the next 15 months, or so.

“As the plans are drawn up, we will share the details with all stakeholders together with costs and timelines. This is the next step in the process and we are looking forward to seeing this project come to fruition. We know the redesign of the property will enhance the area and provide an additional recreational space for the residents, businesses and shoppers in the area.”

Mayor Outerbridge concluded, “This project falls under the purview of the Property Committee, which is now chaired by Alderman Carlton Simmons. The Council is happy with the concept drawings which has created the vision of what the space will look like when the work has been completed.”
