£10m cost for Spalding leisure complex scheme
A report put before South Holland District Council (SHDC) has revealed the total cost of a proposed scheme to overhaul a Spalding leisure complex.
According to the report, the estimated costs of renovating Castle Sports Complex will come to £7.2m, rising to £10m once "design and client supervision" costs are considered. Councillors have now agreed to earmark £20,000 in order to draw up a detailed business case for the scheme.
The proposed design of the revamped Castle Sports Complex has been guided by a survey carried out by Leisure-net, which found a demand for a pool, sports hall and gym facilities. A 25m, six-lane swimming pool; a learner pool; a six-badminton-court sports hall; and an 80-station gym are proposed, along with changing and ancillary facilities.
