Hall Building Committee Update
The hall building committee was very busy this first part of the year and worked hard with architect Dave Mazurick, from ONPA, to create concept drawings for the PRCL AGM on April 28. The presentation at the AGM created some great discussion, comments and questions, which has prompted us to create a question and answer section on the PRCL website that will be available shortly along with the plans for the new hall. As the concept drawings were approved at the AGM, the PRCL executive can submit them along with our 5 year budget and business plan to the City of Edmonton for their approval of the project. If you wish to see the plans, you can view them online or see the larger versions at our monthly meetings.
The hall building committee also submitted an application to the Alberta Lottery Fund’s Community Facility Enhancement Program (CFEP) grant and we are anxiously waiting to hear if we’re approved. If we are able to access this grant, we will be able to start building the new hall this year in the fall.
Since CFEP will not be responding until June 30, 2010, the committee will be looking for other additional sources of funding, such as connecting with local businesses and asking for their support. Monetary and in-kind donations will be both graciously accepted and we welcome any contact suggestions. Please contact the hall building committee at secretary@princerupertcommunity.ca, if you or someone you know would like to contribute to the hall building project.
Thank you,
PRCL Hall Building Committee
