There will be an open house Thursday at city hall to discuss the city's plan to dispose of five small parks including Patrick Reid Park on Boundary Street.

City staff will be hosting an open house Thursday, May 12, from 6 to 8 p.m. to discuss the possibility of selling off some of the city's smaller parks.

Up for possible sale are Beauchamp, Johnson, Gibbon, Patrick Reid and Twelfth Avenue Tot Parks.

The purpose of selling the park land is to acquire revenue that would go into developing access to the river valley.

During the open house staff will be available to provide an overview of the plan, answer questions and receive feedback from the public.

There will also be displays up about the plan between May 14 to May 24 at city hall and the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. During that time the public is encouraged to fill out response sheets that will be provided at those two locations.

The feedback will help city council decide on how to proceed.
