6.2 Amenity Strategies and Community Amenities Off-Site Levy Alignment

The assessment and ranking can influence capital decisions related to investment in facilities and amenities. The assessment does align with the Community Amenities Off-Site Levy Study which outlines specific requirements for indoor recreation facilities.

Based on these new rankings and the service level assessment, as well as progress made since 2017 related to the Plan’s original amenity strategies and other planning work down by the Town since 2017, the following amenity strategies are recommended to be considered by the Town.

• Feasibility planning for a major expansion at the Okotoks Recreation Centre to include leisure aquatics, dryland, children’s play, climbing wall, community hub, family resource centre and support areas.

• Feasibility planning for the development of a new twin ice pad.

• Feasibility planning for a new indoor racquet court centre.
