We have interest from baseball, soccer, basketball, and even archery and badminton.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The proposal would see the construction of a multi-use sports facility. The curling club would be responsible for the financing and maintenance of the six-rink building while a gymnasium, if approved by Town Council, would be a publicly owned facility.<\/p>\n<p>The feasibility study for the project began in January this year and Inglis will be making his final report in January 2018. The study was made possible by a $75,000 grant from Ontario Trillium Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>Inglis told committee they have created a ten-year plan and hope to have the new building up and running in five years.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe can make a business case for this facility,\u201d he told committee. \u201cIt needs to be operated as a business with a full marketing plan, as well as a financial and operational plan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Inglis told the committee the town also has a role to play to make this successful.<\/p>\n<p>He said they need an offer of the land at McCulley-Robertson, a plan to connect William Street with Marsh Road, and an extension of services to the site of the facility. They would also help formulate the plans and write any future grant applications.<\/p>\n<p>Inglis added that the payback of that investment will come in economic return from events, the role it will play in attracting employees to the town, growth of sport, and more utilization of the park for all ages, and it would be fully accessible.<\/p>\n<p>He pointed out that the project fits into the Town\u2019s strategic plan, enhancing economic development as well as health and wellness. It also conforms to the accessibility and youth guidelines.<\/p>\n<p>The cost of the curling facility has been pegged at close to six million dollars; the gymnasium would add between $1.6 and two million to that cost.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_39268\" style=\"width: 705px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39268\" class=\"size-full wp-image-39268\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2017\/10\/HCC-preliminary-estimates.jpg\" alt=\"Preliminary estimates on the costs for building the multi-use facility\" width=\"695\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2017\/10\/HCC-preliminary-estimates-300x257.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2017\/10\/HCC-preliminary-estimates.jpg 695w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-39268\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Preliminary estimates on the costs for building the multi-use facility<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Deputy Mayor Karin Terziano questioned the club&#8217;s projected increase in curling revenues, that nearly double in five years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe current four-rink facility has about a 400-person capacity and a six-rink building would increase that number. There is also a greater opportunity for renting out the facility.  A six-sheet has more utility than a four-sheet,\u201d explained Inglis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you compare Huntsville to Collingwood which has very similar demographics,\u201d he added, \u201cthe opportunities are there and there is proof that a six-sheet facility can work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked after the presentation about the economic impact of those opportunities, Inglis said the upcoming Ontario Tankard championship in January will be worth about $750,000 or more to Huntsville. He also said a recent Brier championship brought in $10.1 million in St. John\u2019s, Newfoundland.<\/p>\n<p>Ted Bionda, Huntsville Curling Club president, told Doppler after the presentation that the project is on schedule, however council\u2019s support is now crucial.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf council can commit to what we have asked today,\u201d he said, \u201cwe can move forward on the next phase and it should be ready to go in 2022.
