Both sides on the multi-use indoor turf facility discussion came out in the lengthy discussion, but some compromise may be on the horizon.
City Manager Norm Gale held decorum in a nearly four hour meeting Thursday, that discussed how to further proceed with the ratified project, after council decided in late March not to award the tender to the Tom Jones Corporation.
Many councillors, including Current River’s Andrew Foulds, felt there should be give and take when it comes to getting shovels into the ground.
“I think we all have to perhaps check our egos at the door,” Foulds stressed to council. “Perhaps we should check our visions of what we were hoping for [for this facility] at the door and see what we can get done that balances the interests and needs of [the user groups in the community].”
