When the federal government approves filnding under its in- frastructure program, «hopefiully" in early May, the department will issue the invitations, eva- luate the proposais and report back to council with a recommen- dation before the summer recess, says Morrow.

That money is te be used te pay for furnishinge, the addition of a solarium and te go towards cc- struction costs. The solarium would be built on the south side of the new facility, giving the centre extra space, an air lock from outside elements and «possiblyr providing an area for smoking,0 says Morrow. \ce HERF-rAGE HOUSEIlimited 216 MARY ST.
