Seniors Facility

With the pending applications for urban intensification, especially for seniors wishing to live out their final years in the urban, downtown core, and given that the community has already invested highly in the downtown area with the the theatre and River Mill Park I would like to see consideration given to the development of a seniors centre incorporating both Club 55 and the Centennial Seniors into a new Seniors Centre that would provide services specifically meeting their needs. Further to that I think the 'proposed condo-land' in the River Mill Park area should instead be considered as the location of a new senior centre. There is available parking, close to the water front making it a lovely spot to congregate.Our neighbour to the south, Gravenhurst has already recognized this need and have provided an excellant facility for their seniors. Huntsville has been recognized as being generally ahead of the pack province wide and a leader in senior activity. We need to keep that pace.

Huntsville Sports Facility Needs

During the last municipal election, the Huntsville Sports Community expressed the need for a number of additional sports facilities in our Town. This is an opportunity for those groups and organizations to have their voices heard by Council as well as the community.

Architectural Board of Review

Given the keen interest in the appearance of our community and the previous work done on design guidelines for the Town of Huntsville, should a committee be struck to come up with more definitive guidelines for buildings and site works in our community?
