River Ward City Councillor Riley Brockington says Mooney's Bay Park will be closing earlier than usual.

The park is expected to close to the public at 9 p.m. on Friday, June 11, and Saturday, June 12. The councillor says the reduced hours will also be in effect the following weekend.

The decision's been made in order to address “a number of issue in the park late at night,” according to Brockington.

After next weekend, the councillor says a final decision on summer hours for the park will be made.
