Mission Statement & financial statements

"The overall vision of the Lansdowne Park Conservancy is to preserve and protect Lansdowne Park as a public space for present and future generations. The plan promotes sports and recreation, supports local small business and provides room for the Farmer’s Market to expand."

"Under the proposal, Lansdowne Park is to be managed by the non-profit Lansdowne Park Conservancy using a public governance board that includes all invested parties. Ownership of the park remains with the City of Ottawa, and city park staff and management could bring their valuable expertise and knowledge to the park through a purchase-of-service agreement that retains all seniority and benefits."
