Consultation has concluded

The City is restoring the vegetation along Wooddale path with native plants. View a map of the project area here.

Native landscapes provide many benefits including;

  • Stabilizing shorelines
  • Supporting cleaner air and water
  • Providing wildlife habitat, including pollinator habitat
  • Managing invasive plants, including Buckthorn
  • Increasing resilience in a changing climate

    There's a little bit left to do to get the site cleaned up - it should be done on Monday.

    Then there will be a pause in work as we wait for the spring flush of vegetation. Weed control will occur through the growing season, and in the fall the site will be ready for seeding.

    We met with the contractor on-site last Friday. The first step is to remove green ash trees and do a lot of buckthorn brushing. As long as the weather cooperates, we expect this step to be completed in March.

    As luck would have it, we were planning to meet the contractor on site this week to get into logistics and discuss the schedule for initial buckthorn and green ash tree removal. We'll give it another go in a couple weeks and provide more information about the schedule at that time.
