Vancouver Park Board
News Release
September 23, 2015
Vancouver
Park Board Chair John Coupar and all Commissioners are very pleased to
share good news related to the construction of the long awaited
Southeast Vancouver Seniors Centre at the Killarney Community Centre.
The
Killarney Community Centre Association has approved the final hurdle of
clarifying facility ownership, which now permits the immediate
issuance of a Request for Proposal for the design and construction of
the Centre. The successful company will be selected by January 2016. A
full construction schedule will be released in the coming months.
The
Park Board would like to thank the Killarney Community Centre
Association, the Killarney Seniors Centre Society, and the Southeast
Vancouver
Seniors’ Arts and Cultural Society for their collective commitment and
leadership in ensuring that this much needed facility gets built as soon
as possible.
Chair
Coupar states “this important step illustrates the benefit of the new,
positive tone set by the Park Board toward a more collaborative
relationship with our community partners.”
