The City is planning to naturalize Vernon Creek through Polson Park over 2 phases and over the next several years. Phase 1 of the naturalization project is planned to start in the summer of 2023 at Highway 97, along Vernon Creek in Polson Park, and continues south towards the current duck pond outlet into the creek channel.

The City of Vernon is building a new, modern recreation facility designed to promote community health and well-being through recreation services. Slated to open in Fall 2026, stay up to the date with the project here.
