Enclosure of Culligan Water Park to provide year-round aquatic services, expanding from 3 months to 12 months per year. It is anticipated that this initiative would add 0.75 aquatic service capacity and could be implemented in the short to medium term based on cost and financing. This initiative supports additional community use but will not be able to accommodate any competitive use.

Recommendation:

That Council endorse the enclosure of the Culligan Water Park to make it a year-round facility based on the concepts with open space and glazing attached as Exhibit A to Report Number 24- 002; and

That Council approve a budget of $25.1M for the Culligan Water Park enclosure to be funded by $5.0M in development charges, $5.1M in Municipal Capital Reserve Fund and $15.0M in debt issuance;
