Update
At its May 17, 2022 meeting, Council directed administration to:
- provide a report, for Council’s consideration by the July 19 Council meeting, with a reduced scope for the Indoor Fieldhouse project;
- provide an additional report, for Council’s consideration by the end of Q4 2022, on the Indoor Fieldhouse to provide the design and concept foundation that will allow for future validation of final design, budget and timelines (this will ensure that value is obtained from the work done to date by the Project Management Team);
- reports will be based upon a proposed timeline for design completion by 2025/2026 and construction to commence by 2027; and determine whether any other sources of funding, such as sponsorships, are available to fund some of the costs of the Fieldhouse Project.
- Specific dates will be shared, once confirmed. Visit the media release for more information.
