A presentation was delivered to Mono Council last Tuesday regarding the refurbishing of the washroom in Monora Park.
During the presentation, Kim Heaton, Director of Recreation, presented Council with a proposed budget of the refurbishment for $24,725.
Because the building would be used by the public, it had to go through the usual building code procedures and trade work had to be completed by licensed contractors, which accounted for some added expense over being done in-house.
Coun. Ralph Manktelow felt that the price was rather high and asked for a breakdown and was told that the structure required almost a rebuild as opposed to just a renovation, plus the added building code costs accounted for the total.
