Wickson Point Concept Plan

Wednesday, 11 June 2008

Dear Sir or Madam

Subject: Wickson Point Concept Plan
STAKEHOLDER GROUP MEETING
Revised date: Monday July7 2008
5:00 - 7:00 pm
Beecher Place, 12160 Beecher Street, Surrey

In May, we sent out an invitation to various Crescent Beach Groups inviting them to participate
in a meeting to discuss the development of a concept plan for Wickson Point at Blackie Spit. We
are concerned that many of these representatives did not have adequate response time and thus
were unable to attend. In consequence, we are rescheduling the meeting to Monday July 7th. We
hope that more groups will be able to attend.

In March 2008, The City of Surrey invited Berris and Associates to provide landscape
architectural consulting and design services for the development of Wickson Point in Blackie
Spit Park. Detailed programming and design for this area of the park needs to commence
beyond that provided in the earlier Blackie Spit Park Master Plan of 1999.

We are seeking community input on the vision for Wickson Point. The vision will aid in
directing the design of the area including environmental considerations, park user circulation,
passive recreation options and street frontage along Wickson Road.

For this initial stakeholder meeting, we are inviting representatives from the Crescent Beach
Residents Association, the Blackie Spit Preservation Society, the Crescent Beach Swimming
Club, the Crescent Beach Dog Owners Association and the Surrey Sailing Club. Please contact
the undersigned if you have any questions.

Please confirm your attendance at the meeting by July 2, 2008 by e-mail or phone to:
