Construction at the Reservoir Begins
Thank you everyone for all of your support these past eight plus months in amending the City’s Site Safety Improvements Plan for the Reservoir’s upper trails.
We absolutely could not have done this without your help. Though construction does mean that the Reservoir is closed this season (we will announce when we have a reopening date), this also means that the site is closer than ever to being opened as a fully accessible green space for all!
