Last year, I provided an update to residents about the failure of the chiller system and subsequent roof repair required at the St. Lawrence Community Recreation Centre (SLCRC). Staff has been working to provide a timeline for repairs, and have now updated me on that work. I am disappointed to report that despite my efforts to expedite this work, construction will not begin until fall 2025. This means that cooling systems will not be in place until 2026, leaving two more summers without air conditioning within the facility.
