Town of Battleford planning million-dollar arena upgrades
The Town of Battleford is moving ahead with plans to upgrade the Battleford arena.
At its last meeting, council approved replacing the ice plant and upgrading the arena’s electrical system.
“We are currently finishing up the design with our engineering firm,” Director of Parks and Recreation Jordan Schechtel said. “Then, we hope to have the tender out by the end of January, with construction to go ahead this summer.”
The estimated cost for the project ranges from roughly $1 million to $1.6 million, which will be included in the town’s 2018 budget.
