The City of Burnaby is looking to hear from Burnaby residents on what kinds of facilities they think should replace the nearly 40-year-old Cameron Recreation Centre and library.
With the goal of creating new facilities designed to better meet the needs of northeast Burnaby’s growing and changing population, the city has launched an online survey where residents can provide their feedback on what facility they would like to have built. In a press release, the city explained that last year nearly 2,400 community members shared their thoughts and ideas for what new facilities could be introduced. The following is a list of ideas the city reviewed and has worked into preliminary plans to replace the Cameron centre.
- New library
- Aquatics facility
- Gymnasium, Weights and Cardio facilities
- Multi-Purpose Rooms
- Community Living Room
- Dedicated youth and seniors’ spaces
“Based on your feedback from the first phase of engagement, along with best practices and technical requirements, we’ve developed a plan for the new centre. The design will also showcase Burnaby’s Green Building Policy requirements for energy efficiency,” reads a page of the city’s website further explaining the project.
The online survey runs from April 20 to May 3 available through the city’s website. You can also email your feedback to [email protected].
