of this Centre. In September, 1987, they will be requiring other

The Committee recommends that staff handle this matter when
appropriate and advise the group of any available municipal space.

the Seniors' Centre is $171,417.00. At present, there are no
provincial or federal grants that are available in the fiscal year.
2. Sewage Plant Site

that Council finalize the deferred consideration on the use of the
old sewage plant and the location of the Parks Department.
