The aquatics and arenas were priorities identified for Prince Albert in the City’s Community Services Master Plan which was developed using extensive community feedback through household and community group surveys, neighbourhood planning meetings, stakeholder meetings and open house sessions.
The City of Prince Albert has also been working directly with user groups to consult on concept design decisions like the number and size of dressing rooms in the facility and deck space and pool size in the aquatics area. Consultations have included Prince Albert Minor Hockey Association, Prince Albert Referees Association, Prince Albert Skating Club, Mintos AAA, Bears AAA, Junior B Titans, Sharks Swim Club, Pikes Synchronized Swimming, the Prince Albert Speed Skating Club and Swim Saskatchewan.
