In what’s poised to be a difficult sell, 36 business cases proposing service level increases have been tabled by the city, carrying a total net property tax impact of $7.78 million in 2023.
Although the business cases in question are on the Nov. 8 city council agenda, the only decision the current batch of elected officials is expected to make is whether they want them forwarded to next year’s budget talks, which the new city council will make a final decision on. Originally constructed as a school in 1957, an attached indoor pool was added 10 years later. The building now hosts the municipal pool and library alongside several community groups such as a children’s centre, sewing club, community closet, daycare, movie auditorium and food bank.
A Core Services Review undertaken in 2019 by the city with KPMG ranked the Onaping Falls Community Centre as one of the five lowest-utilized centres/halls in Greater Sudbury. Its utilization was four per cent in 2018, which assumes an availability of 18 hours per day. The city’s overall average for buildings such as this is 20-per-cent utilization.
