New Ocean Park signage to mark Surrey locale\u2019s \u2018historical significance\u2019<\/p>\n

New signage is coming to Ocean Park ahead of upcoming centennial celebrations, following council\u2019s near-unanimous approval Monday (May 25) of a request from the Ocean Park Community Association.<\/p>\n
The OPCA had asked that signs be installed at three locations \u2013 128 Street and 16 Avenue, 130 Street and 16 Avenue, and 128 Street and 17 Avenue \u2013 \u201cto signify the importance of the Ocean Park community,\u201d according to a City of Surrey report.<\/p>\n
Following council approval, they could be installed within a week or two, the report adds, noting an existing heritage road marker located in the 12900-block of 16 Avenue would not be affected.<\/p>\n
Together, the signage would \u201cfurther create a sense of place for the Ocean Park neighbourhood and further honour its history and significance in Surrey\u2026 while providing a consistent and coordinated signage approach within the community core,\u201d the report states.<\/p>\n
The measure passed without debate, with Coun. Pardeep Kooner opposed.<\/p>\n
The signs are anticipated to be unveiled during commemoration ceremonies for centennial event, set for June 5-6.<\/p>\n
