Township Council Acts on Potential Community Centre Expansion

At the November 6, 2023 Public Council meeting, Township Council voted to direct staff to begin considering a potential expansion of the Aldergrove Credit Union Community Centre (ACUCC). Specifically, Council referred this to the 2024 Budget process.

“Once again, this Council is taking action to get ahead of growth before it becomes too challenging for our residents. We’ve undertaken engagement from the public and got a long list of great ideas. I look forward to seeing some potential next steps from staff.” – Mayor Eric Woodward

“I’m excited to see this, as a member of the task force several years ago. It’s a great opportunity for Aldergrove and I look forward to seeing concepts and potential expansion options. I know the community will be excited.” – Councillor Steve Ferguson

Within the public consultation completed for an “Aldergrove Gateway” expansion project adjacent to the community centre, several common community requests, ideas, themes and options emerged, from restaurant and commercial uses to recreation and community indoor and outdoor spaces, to housing options.

If this is approved in the 2024 budget, staff would report to Council with concepts and potential expansion options, with recommendations for Council to consider, and to solicit public input via additional public engagement processes within the calendar year of 2024.

More information will be communicated as the process above occurs.
