On November 29 Council agenda there is a report on the contract award for the renovation of the Schomberg Community Hall. Very importantly the report indicates that there is a budget to cover the $1.5 million dollar project and that the project will be completed in time for the Schomberg Agricultural Fair in May 2022. This Hall is very important community space; providing accessibility is a real game changer in terms of its value to the community today.  But, how will the community evaluate it in 8 years from now? Our Corporate Energy Management Plan is to reduce energy emissions in King by 45% in 2030. Will this Hall be dragging our overall performance down or will it be one of the stars i.e. the one we will point to as to how retrofits/renovations done “right” really make a difference.  The report indicates that there are several energy efficiency upgrades being incorporated. I will be asking for more information on what the end product will be in terms of energy use & conservation and reduction of GHG.
