But councillors would not commit to any additional funds for the project.<\/p>\n<p>The resolution was part of budget discussions held on February 5 at Town Hall.<\/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>According to a handout distributed by staff at the meeting, the club was hoping the Town would agree to debenture about $4.2 million dollars associated with constructing a new multi-purpose facility, which would also serve as the new home for the Huntsville Curling Club. The request was initially brought before council at its November 26, 2018 meeting.<\/p>\n<p>The club&#8217;s vision was to build the new facility at a cost of approximately $5.2 million. Two million would be covered by the club\u2014it would contribute one million up front and pay back the other million to the Town at $50,000 a year over 20 years. The plan called on the Town to contribute the rest, minus any available grants. The club also requested that the Town put up the land, water and sewer servicing costs, and waive development fees and municipal taxes for the new building. The lands requested would be located at McCulley-Robertson Recreation Park or an agreeable equivalent, such as, for example, the Fowler Pit. The Town would also be requested to improve and maintain the shared parking facilities.<\/p>\n<p>The design and building project would be led by the Huntsville Curling Club, which would manage and operate the building including the rental of space as well as delivering services to other sports clubs, council heard during budget discussions.<\/p>\n<p>The HCC would also carry a reserve fund to manage all capital requirements over the debenture period and, again, partner with the Town to access any provincial or federal grants available. The plan would also require that the municipality start flowing funds to the project as early as 2020\/2021.  At the end of the 20-year debenture, the building would be owned by the Huntsville Curling Club and any revenue from rentals would go back to the club, council heard.<\/p>\n<p>Huntsville Mayor Scott Aitchison told council that the club wanted an answer by the end of this month, in order to make a decision about its future. The club is considering a new build or pumping money into its existing facilities.<\/p>\n<p>Councillor Tim Withey wondered if approving the club\u2019s request would make it difficult to accommodate other user groups also hoping for upgrades. &#8220;There\u2019s probably more opportunity with all the property out there [at McCulley] that we could fit in some other asks as well and make a [bigger] rec complex,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Aitchison agreed. &#8220;I think you\u2019re right, there\u2019s definitely a need for more sports-related infrastructure and we\u2019ve got to plan out what that is, for sure,&#8221; he said, adding that is something the Town\u2019s Community Services Committee is working on, but they will not have an answer by the end of the month as requested by the club.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, council agreed to commit to the land, site servicing costs and parking improvements for the project\u2014but no funds.<\/p>\n<p>Huntsville Councillor Jonathan Wiebe also suggested that if the club were to decide to stay at its current location, at least for now, the Town could play a role in supporting the club with current maintenance issues. Deputy Mayor Karin Terziano said that in meeting with the club its members indicated that in terms of their current location, they must &#8220;love it or list it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>You can find the club&#8217;s presentation proposing a multi-purpose facility to the municipality in November 2018 <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/huntsvilleon.civicweb.net\/document\/17493\/Multi-Purpose%20Facility%20Proposal.pdf?handle=3296C95FECCF4B6C8F30667F8C08E483\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!
