05.1 City Strategic Plan For the past six months the City has
commissioned a
consulting firm
to study the needs for the next ten years
for the City of
Chilliwack. The Club was invited, as a user group, to
meet with the consulting
firm which Wendi and I did. The report has now been released on the
Citys
website for
public input. This building is
recommended by the plan for
replacement by
the City during this period. Every
member of the Board should
study this plan
and comment on it. I have sent an
email to the club members
to also look at
it and comment on it. I have been
conversing with Gord
Pederson at
Parks and Rec and have a meeting planned with him next week to
further discuss
the possibilities. We as a club have
to ensure during this
season and the
next few that we continue to utilize this facility to its maximum
to prove that we really do need a new
building. With Hydro to increase in
the
near future and
the new energy efficient buildings we cannot afford to lose
this
opportunity. I am trying my best as
a manager to promote and increase
the usage of
this building, but feel at times I am trying to do it myself. We all
need to continue
to increase our membership and we can play a big in
Chilliwack
Recreational future. I will keep you
informed to any news from our
meetings.
