Project Update - Feasibility Study Result and Design Approved

February 23, 2026

City Council was presented with the results of the Hopkins Lake Revitalization Study, which identified next steps required to progress with the Jaycee Beach rejuvenation project. Council was supportive of the project design continuing, providing up to $250,000 towards the detailed design process, and also establishing a Project Steering Committee to ensure coordinated oversight, clear direction, and appropriate input as the design is developed.

The Project Steering Committee members include:

• The Mayor
• The City Manager
• The City Clerk
• The Director of Environmental Services
• The Director of Recreation & Community Services

The Steering Committee will coordinate design development and implementation planning within the approved budget, and provide structured oversight through design milestones to deliver a shovel-ready package for the 2027 construction season.
