As of December 18, the Lakeside Community building will be closed to allow for the demolition of this building to make way for new infrastructure that will feature a full-size gymnasium, multi-purpose rooms, playground, slash pad, and a community kitchen.
This new state-of-the art building known as the BLT Community Centre will serve as an important pillar in our community. It has always been a personal long-term goal of mine as your MLA to bring new infrastructure into our community. This community centre will foster active lifestyles, support community projects, and provide opportunities to connect people within our community.
Construction of the new facility will start in 2024 and the centre is expected to open in 2025.
