Facilities

The Town’s open facilities layer places no named facility inside Dundas Street Buffer Block - 7. That is a statement about the layer, not the ground: benches, paths and natural features are not points in it, and a park this size may simply be open space or valley land. The Town’s parks pages describe what is there.

What “Buffer Block” means

A strip the Town classes as a buffer block, separating homes from a road, rail line or other land use.

The class is the label the Town attaches to the park in its open-data parks layer. OakvilleIQ reports the label; it does not read the Town’s parkland policy into it. The Town's parcels for this park also carry the names Dundas Street Buffer Block - 1, Dundas Street Buffer Block - 2, Dundas Street Buffer Block - 3, Dundas Street Buffer Block - 4, Dundas Street Buffer Block - 5, Dundas Street Buffer Block - 6, Dundas Street Buffer Block - 8, Dundas Street Buffer Block - 9, Dundas Street Buffer Block -10, Dundas Street Buffer Block -11.

How this page is built

Everything above comes from four Town of Oakville open-data layers. The parks layer gives the name, the classification and the outline, from which the area is computed; the ward boundaries and the Official Plan community outlines give the ward and community by the point at the park’s centre; the Town boundary gives the lakeshore reading; and the facilities layer gives every named facility whose point falls inside the outline. The Town also keeps a fuller parks inventory (court counts, playground ages, washroom seasons) that is public but not in its open-data catalogue, so it is not used here.

Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence — Town of Oakville. Licence. Layers checked September 24, 2026; the Town can add, rename or reclassify a park at any time.
