## Mapped Amenity Inventory

Clarksdale contains 20 mapped amenity points across six categories. The largest group is recreation with 7 sites, followed by 8 transit stops. Two parks and one dog park round out the outdoor space count in this dataset. These counts reflect point presence only and do not measure service quality or accessibility. The single grocery store is named Desi Mandi in the source records.

The school category lists Clarksdale Public School as the sole educational facility. Transit stops include named locations such as Guelph at Mountainside and Guelph at Mainway. Several other transit points are labeled generically as TransitStop in the mapping data. This inventory establishes what is mapped but not how residents use these facilities. No data on commute times or route frequencies accompanies these location points. Sources:

## Recreation Program Context

City of Burlington lists 88 recreation programs available to residents. Programs include Adaptive Aquatic lessons for children with diverse needs and School Break camps for youth. Drop-in options cover family activities and open gym time for Grade 5 students. These offerings are city-wide and not restricted to Clarksdale facilities specifically. The availability status for most programs is unspecified in the current records.

Certification courses like Bronze Cross and National Lifeguard are offered for eligible participants. Music programs include the Burlington Junior Redcoats Band for ages 9 to 13. Skating opportunities exist at the Burlington Rotary Centennial Pond during winter months. Residents may access these programs based on eligibility rather than neighborhood boundaries. The connection between Clarksdale's mapped recreation sites and these specific programs is not detailed. Sources:
