Aldergrove Lake Regional Park Management Plan
The process to create a park management plan for Aldergrove Lake Regional Park with public involvement is underway. Join us to learn more about the park, and share your ideas on what you think the park should include.

Results from the November 2011 Working Session and the June 2011 Open House will inform the development of the concept plan, currently underway.

The management plan will set up a policy framework that helps to express a common understanding of the park’s future (vision, goal & objectives), identify opportunities and constraints for various park uses, make management intentions transparent, and the decisions of staff and management accountable.

Opportunities for further input will be posted soon. Thanks for your interest and participation!
