Public meeting on Dec. 1 continued from p.17 The Town anticipates building demolition beginning mid-2017. It will take about eight to 12 months to complete. Developing the community centre will take three years to complete, with plans to open September 2020, according to the Town press release. As part of Oakville's Parks, Recreation and Library Facilities Master Plan, the proposed amenities of the community centre include an indoor pool (to replace Centennial Pool), gymnasium, youth space, active living space, multi-purpose space and community rooms. The public consultation meetings on Dec. 1 will focus on confirming these amenities prior to the start of design in 2017. "We believe community centres, and the recreation experiences they provide, play a vital role in supporting individual, family and community wellbeing," stated Colleen Bell, commissioner of Community Development. "We want you to engage in conversations with us about what the centre will provide. Your input will give us valuable information we need to create a centre that meets the needs of all residents." The former site consists of lands on the south side of Macdonald Road, between Reynolds Street and Allan Street. The property includes the existing hospital building and the Wyndham Manor Long-Term Care Centre.
