Final Report Available now for Public Information

The Cariboo Regional District (CRD) in partnership with the District of 100 Mile House, has recently completed the South Cariboo Pool Complex Feasibility Study. The purpose of the study was to investigate the viability of constructing a recreation complex in the south Cariboo that would feature swimming and leisure pools, a fitness centre and multipurpose space. Bruce Carscadden Architect Inc. (BCA) and Professional Environmental Recreation Consultants (PERC) were the consultants selected to conduct the feasibility study.

In late 2008, the Cariboo Regional District Board allocated $30,000 in Feasibility Reserve funding from the 2009 financial plan to complete a study regarding a swimming pool complex in the south Cariboo. The South Cariboo Joint Committee established and appointed membership to a working group to guide development and delivery of the study. CRD Director, Art Dumaresq and District of 100 Mile House Councillor, Bill Hadden were appointed to the committee, which also included two members from the South Cariboo Aquatic Society along with a staff member from both the CRD and the District of 100 Mile House.

The completed study is available for public review on the CRD website at www.cariboord.bc.ca or in person at our south Cariboo office at 175 Airport Road in the South Cariboo Recreation Centre, 100 Mile House.
