Okotoks council has approved a capital plan for the 28.8-acre parcel on the north side of the Sheep River, previously the site of the Okotoks Bible Camp.

There are just a couple of days left to have your say on development plans for litopatopa Park. 

The Town of Okotoks is conducting a survey seeking input to guide the development of the former Riverfront Lands, located at 370068 40 Street East.  

In March, Okotoks council approved a concept plan for developing the park into a leisure recreation space, approving a budget of $1.5 million for the project which will be phased over the next three years. 

The Town is asking for input as to what amenities are priority for installation over the phasing period, as well the theme and style of the play space. The survey is open until Aug.12.  

“This project will help meet long-term community needs by providing increased opportunities for access to unprogrammed leisure recreation including day use/picnicking areas, play space, disc golf, river access, and winter use activities such as a skating path and snowshoe trails,” parks manager Christa Michailuck said in a press release. 

“It will also increase access to one of the most valued features in our community, the river valley.”
