Okotoks delays pool expansion engagement due to October referendum

Town officials say the provincial vote is prompting a rethink of when residents will be consulted on a proposed recreation centre pool expansion.

The Town of Okotoks has adjusted its timeline for public engagement on a proposed expansion of its recreation centre pool, citing the upcoming October referendum in Alberta as one of the reasons for the change.

Officials had planned to gather public input on the project earlier, but the referendum scheduling has led to a revised approach for when consultations will take place.

Further details on the new engagement timeline and the scope of the pool expansion project are expected to be released as the town finalizes its plans.
