Ravensong Aquatic Centre Expansion Update - February 2021

At the RDN Oceanside Services Committee meeting held February 11, 2021 elected officials discussed how the project being considered by the City of Parksville will influence the expansion to Ravensong Aquatic Centre that is currently being considered by the RDN.

From these discussions the Committee then made a recommendation to the RDN Board that a review of the Ravensong Aquatic Centre expansion be completed by staff and the project’s architect to consider expansion of Ravensong in staged phases, starting with changerooms, that could occur independently with a view to providing the pool component at a later phase should the proposed pool in Parksville not come to fruition.

This recommendation will be brought forward to the RDN Board on February 23, 2021 for consideration.

The RDN anticipates ongoing discussions between the City of Parksville and the RDN on the municipality’s proposed multi-plex project including funding options and operational models being considered.
