'Critical juncture': Council commits $20M to field house; city seeking funding from province, feds yyc yyccc
During budget deliberations last week, council approved a $20-million commitment to the Foothills Fieldhouse, a large complex that’s planned to be built adjacent to McMahon Stadium at the current Foothills Athletic Park. The fieldhouse would feature multiple courts, athletic areas and a 400-metre track, filling current gaps in the city’s offerings of indoor sports facilities.Sign up to receive daily headline news from the Calgary Herald, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.
The city has sent letters outlining the funding request to provincial and federal officials, but if higher levels of government don’t kick in their share, Mian said the city should find a way to cover the entire cost itself. “We have to get this built for people,” she said, adding she believes the project is about 40 years overdue.
Calgary Ward 3 Councillor Jasmine Mian was photographed during a council session as city council began budget debates on Monday, November 21, 2022.The Foothills Fieldhouse is one of the city’s “big four” priority capital projects, the others being the event centre that will eventually replace the Saddledome, the BMO Centre expansion and the Arts Commons transformation.
