Consultation has concluded

Thank you to everyone who completed our survey and helped shape the improvements to 9th Line Road End. The park is now open! The design for this space emerged from residents input and feedback received during the development of Innisfil's Official Plan - Our Place

The completed park improvements now include:

  • Removal of sections of asphalt at 9th Line road end and replacement with beach sand.
  • A new gate at end of 9th Line that can be opened for winter access to the lake.
  • Regrading of the existing park with new grass and an expansion of the beach sand area.
  • A new and improved stormwater outlet.
  • A new bike rack, benches, and picnic tables.
  • Gravel parking lot with 10 spaces.

During construction in 2019 the design was changed slightly from the above rendering to avoid a watermain conflict, which resulted in moving part of the stormwater channel into the park. The open channel and stormwater pipes were included in the design to improve local drainage, the open channel with naturalized plantings was recommended by the Lake Simcoe Valley Conservation Authority for riparian habitat, birds and flowers for pollinators.

  • Share I just read an update that bathroom facilities are not included. Can we submit for a portable unit? It's impossible to spend any amount of time at a beach without some sort of washroom. It seems futile to spend all that money for the wonderful renovation so that we can all finally enjoy the beach when we cannot enjoy it for any considerable time without a washroom on site. on Facebook Share I just read an update that bathroom facilities are not included.

    This park is intended to be a walk-able park for the residents in the area. The  new parking lot will not specifically be for Innisfil residents only, however the parking lot will only have 10 spaces and of those 10 spaces there will be designated spots for families with small children and accessible parking. 

    9th Line from 25th Sideroad to the Lake is no parking.

    This year from June 2019 to September 30th the Town issued a pilot project that only allows resident parking along certain streets. The following roads to the 9th Line park were included:  

    Leonard Street from Rose Lane to 9th  & Goodfellow Ave- 9th Line to End of Road

    The Innisfil Beach Park Ad- hoc will be reviewing this pilot project and I will pass on these comments.
