Plans to turn the Jaffray Melick Arena into an indoor soccer complex is still generating debate at city council.
Yesterday, Councillor Louis Roussin says while he supports the concept,
he's concerned about the price tag attached to the proposal to twin the Rec. Center ice surface.
He says he's seen figures as high as 13 million dollars to build a second rink.
Roussin says if there is no government funding for the project, there's no way the city can afford a second arena.
He suggests it would be cheaper to put an ice plant into the JM Arena.
