Paradise Budget Talks 2023

Preparations have started for Budget 2023 and that includes our annual Budget Talks public engagement. We want meaningful input from our residents, community groups and businesses as we begin our budget deliberations so we can find the right balance for our services, programs, and infrastructure.

To participate in Budget Talks 2023; take our Online Survey; participate in the Twitter Town Hall on September 27; or email us to provide your feedback.

Proposed Community Boat House

The Town has acquired the property located at 1717 Topsail Road and is proposing to make the site a Community Boat House for Octagon Pond.

The Town’s Recreation and Open Space Master Plan identified the potential for water activities and a Community Boat House, which would also offer storage to the Avalon Dragons for their paddle boat program, for Octagon Pond. The Town looks forward to working with the Avalon Dragons on this project.

As part of the planning for the proposed Community Boat House, the Town is seeking input from residents and community groups on the types of amenities to bring to the area. Suggestions, comments and ideas can be submitted via email.

Updates on the Community Boat House project will be provided on the Town website and social media.
