The Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD) Board of Directors recently approved a contribution of $250,000 from the Electoral Area A Community Works Fund for construction and engineering costs of the proposed Indoor Aquatic Centre in Golden.
The funding allocation is contingent on the approval of the voters in Electoral Area A and the Town of Golden in the October 15, 2022, referendum on the project.
We’ve recommended the referendum question. The answer will depend on the voters in Golden and Electoral Area A. 
At the June 16, 2022 Regular Meeting, the CSRD Board approved the question for the upcoming voter assent process as:
In unanimous votes, both Golden’s Town Council and the Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD) Board of Directors agreed to allocate the $1.7 million Whitetooth Ski Hill Legacy Fund towards two community recreation projects for Golden and Electoral Area A residents.
Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD) Directors voted to support the allocation of 50 per cent of the $1.7 million Whitetooth Ski Hill Legacy Fund towards the proposed indoor aquatic centre in Golden, with the remaining 50 per cent to be used towards the construction of a multi-use outdoor sport space adjacent to the Mount 7 Rec Plex.
Fundraising for the proposed new Indoor Aquatics Centre in Golden will be getting a boost of nearly a half-million dollars, providing the area’s voters approve of the project. 
The Columbia Shuswap Regional District is inviting tenders from qualified firms to provide a mosquito control program for three defined service areas within the regional district over a three-year term: the Town of Golden and Electoral Area A, the City of Revelstoke and Electoral Area B and the community of Scotch Creek/Lee Creek, within Electoral Area F.
Please see the Tender Documents for further details.
