Visitors to Maffeo Sutton Park over the next few months can expect to meet surveyors who might approach them regarding future plans for the park.
Teams of surveyors will be asking for opinions in regard to the second phase of development for Nanaimo’s busiest park.
Maffeo Sutton Park developed over the last 40 years from an industrial site into Nanaimo’s destination waterfront park.
City council and parks, recreation and culture staff are keen to gather public input as they move forward in planning for Maffeo Sutton Park.
The public is being asked to consider what would make Maffeo Sutton Park better and what should the priorities for improvements be?
