Fate of Vernon Recreation Complex uncertain
Conditions at the Vernon Recreation Complex have local politicians scrambling. Some Greater Vernon Advisory Committee members are
suggesting the cost of a new building should be investigated after being
told Thursday that almost $2 million in repairs are needed at the
current facility, which includes the indoor pool, Dogwood Gym and
auditorium. “It’s a little disturbing to see where it’s falling apart,” said director Mike Macnabb. “We will have to look at the foreseeable life of the structure.” Among the repairs needed is $1.7 million because an
undersized dehumidification system has led to damage to the roof and
walls of the pool, while incorrectly installed heating lines in 1965 are
falling apart. A special meeting will be held in Janauary to discuss the situation further. Read Friday's Morning Star for more details.
