Welcome to Let's Chat Langford!

Overview At the November 4th, 2024, Council Meeting, City of Langford Council was provided with a comprehensive update from Colliers Project Leaders regarding the potential purchase of the Westhills YW/YMCA Langford Aquatic Centre and parking. The briefing detailed the due diligence steps taken to date, and the financial impacts of either continuing under the current arrangement or proceeding with purchasing the building and parking. The City&rsquo;s Legal Obligations The YW/YMCA has indicated that it has already lost over $10 million to date operating the facility, and that its business model does not cover expenses like lifecycle costs. The due diligence indicated that, according to the tripartite agreement, the City is required to cover all building related costs if the YW/YMCA cannot cover building lease and lifecycle expenses. Estimated Lifecycle Costs Colliers Project Leaders estimates an expenditure of approximately $14.8 million for lifecycle costs over the next 17-years, regardless of whether the City decides to purchase the building or not. As noted, this obligation arises because the City acts as the financial guarantor under the terms of the 2013 tripartite agreement. Short-Term Tax Implications/Potential Savings A purchase will require a tax increase of 1.75% annually from 2025 to 2028. However, due diligence indicates that purchasing the building is projected to save the City $10.2 million over 17-years, and $121 million over 42-years, instead of continuing with the current arrangement. In addition to the projected significant long-term savings, the purchase of the building and associated parking lot would secure the asset for Langford residents, providing more certainty around the facility operations after the current arrangement expires in 17-years.

Update: Westhills YW/YMCA Langford Aquatic Centre

Project Update: October 30, 2024 The City of Langford has launched Phase 2 of its Official Community Plan (OCP) refresh/rethink and invites you to participate in a <a href="https://letschatlangford.ca/ocp">survey</a> about the <a href="https://letschatlangford.ca/39441/widgets/193150/documents/141812" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ideas gathered</a> in Phase 1 public engagement.In Phase 1 of public engagement, the priorities and feedback from the community were identified. The City has now released an <a href="https://letschatlangford.ca/39441/widgets/193150/documents/141954" target="_blank">&ldquo;Ideas Paper&rdquo;</a> that takes what we heard from the community, and connects that feedback to important new ideas and approaches to high quality city-building. These ideas are referred to as &ldquo;initially preferred options&rdquo; throughout the paper. Phase 2 public engagement aims to assess public support or concerns early on to allow for adjustments before the draft OCP is finalized. In addition to the survey, we invite you to join us at a public open house on Saturday, November 2nd from 10am to 1pm at Ruth King Elementary School gymnasium (2764 Jacklin Road). The open house offers residents the opportunity to learn more about the &ldquo;initially preferred options&rdquo;, provide valuable inputs, engage in meaningful discussions, and ask questions of City planning staff.Your feedback will help determine whether these ideas should be developed further and included in the draft OCP, which will be shared for additional input during Phase 3. The survey is open until November 20th. --------- OCP Refresh Launch: July 2024Langford is one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada. Can we make Langford the BEST growing city in Canada?
