New Recreation Facility – Public Consultation

Council is proposing a 10-lane, 25-metre pool, with a leisure learn-to-swim pool, a hot therapeutic pool, a double gymnasium and an elevated walking track. This new facility will be located on approximately 7 acres of land, south of Highway 7 on McEachen Boulevard.

Public consultation is an integral part of the planning process!
