The swimming pool at the Arts and Recreation Centre in Quesnel is over 40 years old and needs to be upgraded to better meet the needs of the community and to attract new investment, potential workers, and residents to the region.
The Cariboo Regional District and the City of Quesnel are proposing major upgrades for the swimming pool and the CRD is seeking authorization to borrow up to $35 million to finance the revitalization of this critical recreation amenity. Eligible voters are being asked to cast their ballot in a referendum on June 10, 2023 to determine whether or not to authorize this borrowing.
