Coaldale council takes action as rec centre costs rise to over $18-million
COALDALE, AB – The Town of Coaldale is doing its part to mitigate the impacts of the rising costs for its new multi-purpose recreation centre.
During a special council meeting on Monday, it was outlined that the facility is now expected to cost a few million dollars more than what was originally anticipated.
Back in September 2021, it was estimated that the rec centre would cost the town $14,139,167. By December, that increased to $15,575,000 based on the first two tenders that had been received.
Now, the Town has amended the total project budget to $18,879,607 inclusive of contingency.
