Recommendation Priority Timeframe Additional Operating Costs
1. Continue to reinforce the City's community centers and halls as community hubs through aesthetic and accessibility-related improvements, developing social spaces in the lobbies and common areas that are comfortable and welcoming integrating space for agency and community partners through rentals or other agreements (e.g. with the public library. EarlyON Centre, or other providers), and continued commitment to delivering community-focused programs and services. High Ongoing Depends on the actions taken
2. Reorient the Adie Knox Herman Recreation Complex as a modernized, high-quality neighborhood hub that serves the unique characteristics of the surrounding community and the needs of residents across Windsor. At a minimum, a gymnasium, fitness center, indoor walking track, and other space conducive for use by community partners should be added to Adie Knox Herman Recreation Complex to replace ice sport and aquatics programming (per Recommendation #5 and Recommendation #6 of the Master Plan). Am architectural and engineering study of the Adie Knox Herman Recreation Complex and the broader Wilson Park site is required to determine the feasibility of this action. Removed by Council Resolution ACR630/2019
3. Engage the Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board and Greater Essex County District School Board to determine their interest in formalizing a reciprocal agreement to facilitate consistent community access to schools (e.g. gymnasiums and other school space, as required) in exchange for access to City of Windsor recreation facilities and/or other agreed-upon supports. High Short-Term No
4. Undertake an analysis of potential opportunities to bolster community use at the City's indoor aquatic centers through a coordinated strategy of program delivery, pricing for community-oriented programs consistent with other indoor aquatic centers, providing parking passes or discounts, and pursuing agreements with institutions (including school boards, post-secondary institutions, Windsor Regional Hospital and other local health providers). High Short-Term No
5. In line with Recommendation #2 and Recommendation #4 of the Recreation Master Plan, transition indoor aquatic programming from Adie Knox Herman Recreation Centre to the Windsor International Aquatic & Training Centre and Gino & Liz Marcus Community Complex. In doing so, redirect a portion of the capital and operational savings towards funding the recommended re-imagination of the Adie Knox Herman Recreation Complex so that it delivers a broader range of community-focused programs compared to the present time.
