ECONOMIC REALITIES HAVE CITY CONSIDERING SCALING BACK LEWIS FARMS REC CENTRE
Inflation and supply chain issues have the city reconsidering scaling back on some features of the Lewis Farm Rec Centre. Eliminating a diving pool and shortening another pool would save $58 million dollars which could be funneled elsewhere. Even with the cutbacks the Lewis Farm Rec Centre would still be a first class facility including indoor ice rinks, a fitness area, an aquatic centre, a gymnasium, an Edmonton Public Library branch, and a district park with sports fields.

Should the City continue with the original plan and budget increase or scale back both for the Lewis Farms Rec Centre?
