High costs are halting plans for a child-care centre for 74 kids in Burnaby's Deer Lake neighbourhood.
Burnaby city council has rejected a plan for an $11.4-million child-care facility for city and RCMP staff at Deer Lake citing cost concerns.The child-care facility at 4248 Rowan Ave. and 6250 Deer Lake Ave., directly across the street from Burnaby City Hall and RCMP headquarters, would include two buildings with space for 74 children, according to a staff report.
But council unanimously referred the report back to staff "to find a more economical way of building it."In June, staff recommended a plan for the Rowan Avenue facility which would have cost upwards of $22 million. The city told the NOW earlier this year it expects to open the child-care spaces to the community when city hall moves.
