What's Happening
The City of Peterborough is inviting residents to learn about the proposed improvement of Kawartha Heights Park and provide feedback. The park is located at 2229 Kawartha Heights Blvd in Ward 2.

In 2026, The City is planning a facility fit study and public engagement process. In 2027, Phase 1 work is proposed to upgrade the ball diamond or the rectangular field to a Level B and formalize parking. In 2028, Phase 2 work is proposed to provide a new splashpad, pet exercise area and multi-use sport court.

City parks will incorporate features for all ages with a focus on improving accessibility within the parks.

In 2023, the Parks and Outdoor Recreation Facility Study sought input from the community to create long-term strategies for the provision of selected types of outdoor culture and recreation facilities.

Kawartha Heights Park was identified as a candidate location for multiple facilities to improve and expand opportunities to support recreation across the City. Completion of this project will support the provision strategies as outlined in the report.
