Help guide the design for two new recreation facilities in Ottawa’s southeast

Give your feedback by April 15.

Residents are invited to provide their feedback to help guide the development of two new community spaces planned for Ottawa’s fast-growing southeast community:

• Riverside South Community Centre, Library and District Park: The centre will include a 1,900-square-metre community centre, containing a gymnasium, fitness studio, meeting and multi-purpose rooms, a 1,400 square-metre Ottawa Public Library branch, and a surrounding park with sport courts, sport fields, a skateboard park, a splash pad, playground and walking paths.

 

• Southeast Ottawa Recreation Complex and District Park: The 15,000 square-metre complex will include an indoor pool, two ice pads, a gymnasium, a fitness studio, multi-purpose rooms and exterior amenities including a splash pad, sport courts, sport fields and play structures.

Give your input 

Both facilities are currently in the planning stage, and residents are invited to share feedback to help guide their development. We are seeking input on how people would use the facilities, what programming needs exist in the community, and what types of features would best support residents. Concept renderings will be developed and shared at a later stage for additional public feedback.

Here’s how you can give feedback for the first phase: 

• Visit engage.ottawa.ca to get more information on the projects and complete a survey, which runs until April 14.
• Email RCFS-PublicEnagagement@ottawa.ca 

   Also, residents are invited to attend an in-person consultation session that will primarily focus on the Riverside South Community Centre, Library and District Park: 

• Tuesday, March 24
  • 7 to 8:30 pm
  • Rideauview Community Centre (4310 Shoreline Drive)
