The Town of Oakville will be hosting a community information meeting led by Mayor Rob Burton and Ward 1 Councillors Alan Johnston and Ralph Robinson to outline the programs, services and specifics planned for this youth initiative. This proposed space is intended to be a welcoming environment where youth can take part in a diverse range of specialized programs, services and positive recreational activities. The goal is to offer youth an opportunity to socialize in a designated and supervised "youth only" setting that also provides such integrated services as education and career counseling. The need for this proposed youth centre was brought forward to the Town by members of the Bronte Consultation Committee with support from Councillors Alan Johnston and Ralph Robinson, the Oakville Youth Advisory Committee, and the Halton Regional Police. In response, the Town conducted a feasibility study in the spring which reinforced the need for additional youth focused space in Bronte.
