Capital Projects - Recreation Facilities
Our most current capital projects for our city facilities, including the new multiplex (Meadow Lake Recreation and Civic Centre) can be found on our community engagement portal Your Meadow Lake.
Information about other recent recreational facility projects will be posted here. Please click each project information or FAQ section of interest to you for more information on each archived project.
Aquatic Centre - UPGRADES INFORMATION
The city works hard to continue to maintain the Aquatic Centre so that it is not only a comfortable environment for staff and users, but so that it will continue to last well into the future.
Capital upgrades for the 2023 year are planned to address issues regarding excessive heat in the summertime.
An expense is considered a Capital expense if it is known that it will extend the life expectancy of a facility and meets a certain threshold in dollar value.
The pie chart shows the capital expenses planned for the Aquatic Centre in 2023.
- New Slide (2022): Due to supply issues and provincial health requirements some of the 2022 work for installing the new pool slide has had to be pushed into 2023.
- Sunshade: This will add sunshades to help decrease the heat that pours through the windows in the pool area.
- Automated Controller Replacement: The automated unit that controls the temperature needs to be replaced.
- Air Conditioner: There are two units for this facility, Unit A is being replaced in 2023.
Connecting Communities Path - PROJECT INFORMATION
A grant was received in 2021 to construct a path to join the path in our Lions Park to the path on Flying Dust. The project continues with the preparation of wayfinding signage, some lighting, and some landscaping work to be installed/completed in the spring of 2023 as soon as the weather allows. With some savings found in other areas of the project we were able to increase the planned lighting over the original 10 lights.
The final items for this project will be completed in spring/summer of 2023.
