THUNDER BAY — Thunder Bay’s botanical conservatory is reopening to the public, as the city pushes back a major renovation of the facility that staff now say won’t take place until next year.
“We have concerns about the viability of awarding the project in March/April and being able to source all of the materials,” he said in an interview. Halvorsen said the building will remain open until at least April, when city council is expected to consider an update on the project. The full project, including greenhouse replacement, was most recently estimated at $7.5 to $8 million by staff in 2022. That rose from an estimate of below $5 million in late 2020, and an earlier figure of just over $3 million, with some of the increase related to an expanded project scope.Halvorsen acknowledged the risk another delay will bring more increases, but said staff concluded the risk of proceeding this year was greater, and could have resulted in a longer closure.
