## Resource

Mayor Ken Sim says Vancouver will spend $400M to rebuild and renovate five community centres. The promise comes in Sim’s state of the city address. The mayor calls it the most ambitious funding package in the city’s history. Details, including which community centres will be included, have not been unveiled. Last September, the city’s independent auditor said Vancouver had not put aside enough money for the replacement of pools, rinks and community centres which have reached the end of their useful lives.
