The black fence actually looks fairly nice. I imagine a concern is controlling access to the park, particularly after daytime hours.

Errecting a permanent fence at least allows them to better enforce trespassing laws

Not sure if this has been shared yet, but some new photos of Miyonohk, which is the new park at NorQuest College.

I don't like a lot on the current Council, but I do like him as a Councillor. He has some profile, but is not a headline grabbing show boat like certain others and seems to be fairly effective too.

Abbey Glen Park still has the permanent fencing so I doubt it's for fundraising purposes.

It's permanent due to issues they had. There were two fences up, one temp and one permanent.

This is the newly finished supporting structure of Whitemud Creek halfway between Snow Valley and Alfred Savage. For most of the work they put a lower level.protection of a small layer of rocks while putting a full wall at each end. Today with the creek running somewhat high its already into.the fabric. This will not last long. How does this even pass basic inspection and who.designed it. Sigh.

+I believe it will work. I've seen it done in BC on some of the flood restoration work. Those are willow planted in the netting, which will capture sediment during high water events. But I do remember over a year ago riding in the winter and seeing how deep they went below the creek. That stone will also be good spawning ground for fish.
