Welcome to the Englishman River Regional Park Riparian Area Improvements Get Involved RDN project page. In 2023 the RDN conducted Englishman River Regional Park Riparian Trail Assessment to determine how the trails in the park affect flood risk, bank erosion, and riparian habitat. The assessment report recommended several projects to be implemented over the next five years. These include habitat restoration, trail and river access point closures and trail re-alignments.

This page will be updated as the projects progress.

  • Share As your website indicates the park lands at Englishman River are owned by others and not the RDN. So why is the RDN required to pay for capital costs and undergo improvements to the lands if they are not the owner. Seems very odd. Would you expect a renter to pay for the roof and paint the interior of a house??? on Facebook Share As your website indicates the park lands at Englishman River are owned by others and not the RDN.

    Thank you for your question about the RDN’s responsibilities for improving the park under our lease agreement with the landowners. The RDN is currently in a 99-year lease with The Nature Trust of Canada and Ducks Unlimited and a 25-year lease with the Province for the various land parcels in the park. The conditions of the lease agreement require the RDN to ensure that development, management and operations of the park are compatible with the conservation aims of the landowners including the preservation of the forest ecosystem, fish and wildlife habitats. In 2008, the RDN, the landowners and the public collaboratively created a management plan for the park and the RDN is required by the terms of the lease agreement to provide capital and operational resources to implement the actions outlined in the management plan. This type of lease agreement is not governed by the terms of Residential Tenancy Act, and so the responsibilities of RDN and the landowners are different from what you would find between a residential landlord and tenant.
