Brandon city councillors meet tonight (Feb 6).
On the agenda, they’ll hear a staff recommendation not to award a contract to tear down the Park Community Centre. The administration says it received three bids for the contract, but all werer over the $1.2-million set aside for the work.
Also on tap, they’ll get a report about the speed limit reduction study on Durum Drive, a presentation on cutting the use of single-use plastics, and reports from the Keystone Centre board, and the Western Manitoba Centennial Auditorium board.
Councillors will also discuss whether to request funding from the Manitoba Water Service Board for the lift station project in the city’s southwest.
