PB 2025/2026: Share Your Ideas, Avondale!

The Participatory Budgeting Idea Collection will take place through both in-person events and online submissions via our community engagement portal- Willowdaleactionhub.ca. To increase the likelihood of your project idea moving forward in the PB process, we encourage you to take ownership of your idea by becoming an in-person Project Champion. When submitting your idea online, please indicate your willingness to serve as a Project Champion in the comment section to ensure your idea has a better chance to be considered in the PB process.

Who is a PROJECT CHAMPION? A Project Champion is a participant who submits an idea through the Participatory Budgeting (PB) process and collaborates closely with Councillor Cheng's staff to turn their idea into reality from start to finish. One of the key responsibilities of a Project Champion is to mobilize their idea in the community to gather maximum support.

You will need to SIGN UP on www.willowdaleactionhub.ca to submit your IDEA in the 'Share Your Ideas Avondale' folder.

IMPORTANT: Please mention in the description of your IDEA- " I will be the Project Champion for this idea"

Thank you to everyone who participated in this year's Avondale Participatory Budgeting process by sharing ideas, attending events, and casting your vote.

Residents selected the following projects for implementation:

• Additional benches and picnic tables at Avondale Park and Glendora Park

• Adult exercise equipment at Glendora Park

• Ping pong tables at Avonshire Park, Avondale Park, and Glendora Park

• Playground upgrades at Avondale Park

Our office has completed an initial site visit with community representatives to identify potential locations for these improvements. The next step will be a feasibility review with City staff to assess the proposed locations and determine implementation requirements.

Thank you again to everyone who participated and helped shape the future of Avondale's parks and public spaces. We look forward to sharing further updates as these projects move forward.
