Oct 31, 2025 - Mar 31, 2029
Description:
The community league assessed its aged building to make it a new net zeron carbon, energy efficient and fully accessible and properly suited to the needs of the local community. Building assessments ultimately determined a failed structure 50 years ahead of its life expectancy and costs to repair the building were too high and would not improve energy efficiency, program needs or accessibility. The only viable approach is to replace the hall to align with municipal requirements and fast growing community needs in Ritchie or in four adjacent communities. With a secured development permit, support from various organisations and access to 552 memberships and over 30 businesses, the league is shovel ready and feasible. Ritchie and adjacent community members will benefit the most from the continued availability of a community hall. Located at 7727 98 Street NW in Edmonton, the building currently serves as an affordable space for charities and non-profit organisations to provide affordable programs to young families and cultural groups. The new hall will also better serve our houseless residents.
