Administration for the City of Lacombe presented council this week with an option to explore the development of a long-range plan for a new Recreation Complex through a collaborative effort between the Town of Blackfalds, Lacombe County, and the City of Lacombe.

City officials say the proposed facility would aim to address the growing demand for recreational facilities and spread the associated costs among the benefiting communities.

A tri-party facility strategically located between the urban municipalities, note City officials, could provide shared high-quality recreation infrastructure, and contribute to long-term financial viability for all three communities. The City says the long-range plans of all three communities support the exploration of shared service provision.

Lacombe city council referred the matter of a tri-party Alberta Community Partnership Grant Application to the Intermunicipal Development Plan & Intermunicipal Collaborative Framework Committee of the City of Lacombe, Town of Blackfalds, and Lacombe County for their review and consideration.
