Robert Moore Park Redevelopment

Calling all neighbours to help us! The City of Brantford is currently seeking feedback from residents to help inform the new playground design for Robert Moore Park, moving to 22 Sydenham Street.

The new park will include two playground equipment design options to choose from. In addition to new playground equipment, the new park will also feature a three-bay swing set with an accessible swing, shad shelters, community gardens, accessible paved pathways and new trees for additional shade. A splash pad will also be included in the final design.

Your feedback is is very important to us in creating a playground that captures the needs of the community. We would greatly appreciate if you could take a few moments to tell us what you think through the Playground Renovation Survey before Wednesday, January 26, 2025. Thank you in advance for taking the time to get involved.

Reimagining Arrowdale

On December 17, 2019 Brantford City Council voted to direct staff to dispose of the  City owned lands at 282 Stanley St. to fund much needed affordable housing within the municipality. The sale of these lands provides a substantial capital foundation to create much needed, sustainable affordable housing in our community. The proceeds from the land sale combined with ongoing tax revenues, creative financial planning, partnerships with non-profit housing sectors and federal and provincial funding streams have the potential to result in over 470 units of affordable, sustainable, mixed income housing options for the residents of Brantford and Brant over the next 10 years.

Southwest Community Centre and Park

Introducing Southwest Community Centre and Park – a vibrant development set to transform the southwesternmost part of the city!

Joining forces in a collaborative effort, the Grand Erie District School Board (GEDSB) and the City of Brantford present a dynamic project. On 7.2 acres at the intersection of Shellard Lane and Strickland Ave, a Joint Build facility will house a new elementary school, community center, library, gymnasium, and multi-purpose rooms – fostering a hub for community engagement.

But that's not all – adjacent to the school site, a 24-acre City of Brantford Community Park is set to become the largest in the southwestern part of the city. Boasting cricket and soccer fields, pickleball courts, a skate park, winding trails and more, this park promises to enhance the quality of life for Brantford's residents and foster exciting new connections among the community.
