My office has been advised that City staff will be conducting an environmental investigation of Forbes Park at 669 Paul Avenue on May 2. To facilitate this work, the park will be closed to the public for health and safety purposes. The City's Environmental Remediation Unit is conducting this environmental investigation for due diligence purposes. The work on May 2 will primarily include borehole drilling, monitoring well installation, as well as soil and groundwater sampling at various locations. The work will take place May 2 from 8 am to 5 pm. Construction noise should be expected, however there will be no traffic impacts. A bilingual notice will be posted at the park entrances prior to the closure.
