April 2023 Progress Update

Renew ‘22 Update

The countdown is on as we quickly approach the start of Phase One construction. As a reminder, Phase One includes the completion of our new youth facilities and the transition of the Administration Offices upstairs to the current location of the Creekside Rooms. As we write this article, we are still waiting for final permits from the District of West Vancouver to start construction, but we are optimistic we remain on schedule to start demolition at the end of April. All preparations are in place as the Administration Offices have already been temporarily moved to the Club Lounge and we are wrapping up final celebrations in our Creekside Rooms. As soon as we receive permits, Members can expect to receive email communication to outline exactly when construction will begin and any necessary details regarding Club access.

Since the last Renew ’22 update in the Winter issue of the View, the Renew ’22 Committee and Management have completed the tender process for the General Contractor for Phase One. Final details are being approved at the Board level and an announcement as to which firm was awarded the contract will be announced to the Membership in our next update. Simultaneously, the Renew ’22 Committee and Management continue to work with consultants to finalize the detailed design of Phase Two. Detailed design, like in any construction project, has proven to have its challenges as we work to stay within budget while still delivering a project that will meet Members’ expectations. Once the detailed design is complete we will be excited to share updated renderings with the Membership.

Have you seen the new Renew ’22 display in the front Member Services lobby? This display location will continue to be updated as plans develop to ensure Members are up-to-date and to share the excitement as we lead up to project milestones.
