RANKED CAPITAL PROJECTS

MODULAR CHILDCARE SPACES The City will invest in the development of new childcare spaces through exploration of building type, modular or traditional, based on construction costs. The City will apply for upcoming provincial government major capital grants to add to the existing budget. The goal is to provide childcare for children ages 0-12, with the potential to have a non- profit organization be a part of the service delivery. The City will circulate a request for proposals for the design and construction of a modular child care facility and the location to be explored with the School District or at a recreation site. Currently staff are researching the costs for modular build and the maximum number of childcare spaces that can be created within this budget. MUSEUM EXPANSION The Museum expansion will address the Museum of Surrey’s functional needs for gallery, program and work space. The design phase began in 2016, construction started in 2017 and is expected to be complete in Fall 2018. Included in this expansion will be a 2,500 sf flexible Feature Gallery for local, national and international exhibitions and programs, a dynamic atrium for community events, and back of house areas including additional collections storage, a fabrication workshop and office space. In addition, the Kids Explore Zone will be expanded from 800 sf to 2,000 sf to engage young families in Surrey in interactive and exciting ways. Additional work has been funded to compliment the museum expansion, some through Federal Grants. This includes the addition of an Indigenous Hall, relocation and restoration of the 1881 Town Hall and 1891 Anniedale School to the site (interiors completed in early 2019), and other campus improvements. The entire project is anticipated to cost $14.7 million, with $4.74 million coming from the Federal Government. NEWTON LIBRARY EXPANSION The Newton Library expansion will include a silent study room, digital learning classroom, more space for individual, group study and computer, a larger children’s area and a dedicated youth space. Details and timelines are still to be studied further as the existing location may not be a viable option. NORTH SURREY ARENA REPLACMEENT The existing North Surrey Arena contains 2 sheets of ice; one of the sheets was built in 1966 and is at the end of its useful life. To ensure that the users of that arena are not displaced due to a facility failure, it has been necessary to plan and build the replacement of the 2 sheets prior to closing the existing arena. An additional sheet of sheet of ice is also being added to meet the growing demand for ice sports and dry floor use in the City, resulting in a 3 sheet sports complex in South Westminster. The facility will also include program space, multipurpose and community meeting spaces, food services and room for further expansion. It is anticipated that the multi-year budget requirement for this project will be $52 million and will open in the Fall of 2019.

the future lives here.
