3. Mooney’s Bay Pavilion UPDATE

Further to your inquiry, below is an update on the progress of the project.
• The Surveys and Mapping Unit will be completing the field work for the topographic survey tomorrow. The plan drawing will be compiled next and should be ready in November.
• The City has retained an environmental and geotechnical engineering consultant to prepare a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA), a Phase II ESA and a Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation.
• The Phase I ESA is currently underway.
• Borehole testing for the Phase II ESA and Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation is planned to start the week of October 31 and is being scheduled around the cross-country running bookings at the park.
• Locates will be conducted by the end of October prior to the borehole testing. The field crew from the Surveys and Mapping Unit will be returning to the site to pick up the locate information for the topographic survey.
• A walk-through of the Beach Pavilion was conducted by staff.
• A draft building program and site program have been prepared and will be refined later after the survey plan is available and an equipment inventory has been completed for the storage rooms.
• Future work includes reviewing the proposed universal washroom building by the Canada 150 playground from a business case perspective, preparing development options, initiating the feasibility study with Infrastructure Services, drafting the terms of reference for the feasibility study, and consultant procurement.
If you have any questions or would like to discuss, please do not hesitate to contact RCFS management or myself.
