Are changes planned at Lookout Lake?
When will upgrades to the dam take place?
First, Council has directed staff and consultants to refine designs and cost estimates, and submit a grant application to offset the cost of the upgrades. The detailed project, along with the outcome of the grant application will be presented for Council consideration as part of the 2020 budget process.
Will upgrades to the dam affect Lookout Lake or the surrounding park?
Safety upgrades proposed for the dam will not impact how the community enjoys Lookout Lake or the surrounding parks and trails.
