In Powassan, the Trout Creek Community Centre will be moving ahead with a project to make the building more accessible.
Over $187,000 ($75,387 federal; $62,809 provincial; $50,258 municipal) is being invested through the three levels of government for an accessible ramp, hands-free hardware and railings, four sets of publicly accessible bleachers for community events, and new accessible playground equipment.
“The rehabilitation of the accessibility ramp at the Trout Creek Community Centre will ensure that our Recreation Center is accessible and utilized to its potential. The accessible playground equipment provides safe and inclusive play opportunities for children. The portable accessible bleachers will encourage participation in events and activities by all community members,” stated Peter McIsaac, Mayor of Powassan.
