New Facilities and Park Upgrades

Delivered in 2021-2022

 
Two new recreation facilities, a new park and upgrades to a number of public spaces are on track for delivery in Coquitlam this year.
 
The opening of the new Place Maillardville Community Centre, Coquitlam Family YMCA and Sheffield Park this year are among seven major projects still to be completed in 2022. Additionally, eight capital projects were completed over the past year including the new Town Centre Park washrooms, expansions to Poirier Sport and Leisure Complex and City Centre Aquatic Complex, and the Burke Mountain Discovery Centre and Cafe.
 
This important work is key to meeting the community’s current and future needs and is supported by long-term financial planning – including the Five-Year Capital Plan for 2022-2026 – and overall strong fiscal responsibility.
