The redevelopment of PRC has been a priority for the city for more than a decade.
Plans include a triple gym complex, walking/running tracks, a 25-metre pool, as well as leisure and warm/cold plunge pools, and sauna/steam rooms.
General program space will feature youth and children zones, childcare and a kitchen.
The city recently received more than $26 million dollars from the Growing Communities Fund. Staff recommends that council put aside 50 per cent of that amount to reduce the debt servicing impacts of the PRC replacement.
The total cost for the project is expected to be approximately $150 million.
