Plans for a new Greater Vernon active living centre continue to move ahead.
The City of Vernon has hired FaulknerBrowns Architects, based out of the United Kingdom, to conduct a feasibility study for new facilities.
The study will look at the need and potential locations for new venues, as endorsed by local politicians earlier this year in a short term action plan.
“The short term action plan included a recommendation to proceed with the development of a request for proposals for an analysis to consider the feasibility of, and potential locations for, new recreational facilities including a new indoor aquatic facility, gymnasiums, fitness spaces (including a walking track), program spaces and to consider future enhancement of the current Aquatic Centre,” Doug Ross, the City’s recreational services director said in his report to council’s committee of the whole meeting Monday.
