Let’s Play, Courtenay! The “Let’s Play, Courtenay!” Park Playground Design Standards will guide the creation of new playgrounds for the City of Courtenay. The standards are a set of steps the City will follow to ensure Courtenay’s playgrounds are designed and upgraded to best meet the needs of our community.

As the City of Courtenay moves forward with the PPDS guidelines, it is important to note that Courtenay’s playground system is part of an interconnected ecosystem that is affected by changes in neighbourhoods and the community, as a whole, as it grows. It is crucial to plan, implement, continuously reassess, and remain flexible in response to new developments and ongoing public feedback.

These standards provide guiding principles and best practices for improving Courtenay’s park playgrounds, emphasizing diversifying play experiences and enhancing accessibility and inclusion. They are informed by the vision and goals of the Official Community Plan and the recommendations of the Parks and Recreation Master Plan, in addition to feedback through community engagement.

Courtenay Council adopted the Park Playground Design Standards at the September 11, 2024, Council Meeting. Scan the QR code to view the standards or visit www.courtenay.ca/letsplay .
