Construct a New Recreational Community Centre

The Town of Newfane has experienced rapid growth because of several new housing developments that have doubled the population over the last six years. In turn, this has led to a significant increase in year-over-year tax revenue for the Town. This has afforded the Town the opportunity to provide additional services to the community. However, the Town currently lacks the facilities to support such services. The regional council has recently voted todevelop a Recreational Community Centreto be built on the municipal lands near the Town Hall.

Project Rationale

The new Centre will provide residents with facilities that will help bring the community together. It will also provide the opportunity to adequately support competitive supports with other towns and cities. The new complex will be state of the art and could be used to attract top tier athletes that the Town of Newfane was not previously able to recruit. The complex will continue to strengthen the Town's relationship with the local community through interaction programs such as hockey, swimming, and basketball camps as well as local fundraising events.

Project Objectives and Goals

The main objective of the project is to provide the local community with high quality sporting facilities to encourage both friendly and competitive events that will help promote the Town's team spirit. The goal of the project is to improve facilities so that they are at a standard and level to other prestigious facilities across the country.

Anticipated Benefits

• Interest to utilize the facility by other athletes across the country
• Increased revenue to the Town and the local community from events
• Healthier and happier community
• Creates a positive work-life balance for people
• Improves the Towns' reputation when they host national conferences

Project Alternatives

Most construction projects offer a number of alternatives to clients (e.g. bronze, silver, gold). A number of community consultation and collaborative sessions were held with the local community to develop a concrete list of facility amenities. The project team worked hard to finalize this list to avoid further changes during design and construction. After careful deliberation, the Town has decided to go with the "gold" alternative.

The gold package comes with a facility that will be modern, fit-for-purpose, and complete with sports and swimming facilities. It will be designed to meet the needs of today's public leisure users and the entire community.

The proposed 150,000 square foot facility will include the following:

• Hockey rink
• 25m main swimming pool
• Learner pool
• Fitness suite
• 6 community multi-purpose studios
• Gymnasium/ basketball court
• 1,400 parking spaces

Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

Before developing a Gantt chart, it's important to complete Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) to illustrate the key components of the project. The complex will consist of a new 150,000 square foot facility with all of the elements mentioned above (e.g. hockey rink, 25m swimming pool, learner pool etc.) plus other components such as project management activities, lounges, and food concession areas. When breaking down your work, think about all these components as well as everything that goes into it (e.g. lighting, flooring, restrooms, seating, scoreboards, etc.)

Cost Estimates

Newfane Town Council initiated the project with funds secured from the new tax revenue generated because of the housing development and developer levies collected to support infrastructure projects. However, initial funding of $40M budgeted for the project were found to be insufficient to achieve the requirements and further funding was required. Town Recreation and Infrastructure Project Committees constructed a business plan that secured an additional $25M from Provincial grant for a total project budget of$65M.

Below is an estimated cost per square-foot (SF) to construct the Centre. Use it to determine what the cost is for each resource along with the % of total budget dedicated to each resource.

Item	Cost/SF per item	Total cost per Item	% of Total Budget per Item
Contractor Fees	$40
Architectural Fees	$12
Community Consultation Costs	$1
Cost of Materials	$300
Permit/Fees	$2
Cost of equipment Rentals	$50
