The Rolleston Library and<br />
Community Centre will be the<br />
focal point of the new town<br />
centre, to be developed in the<br />
vicinity of Rolleston Reserve and<br />
Tennyson St.<br />
The facility will provide a<br />
usable area of 2256m 2 over two<br />
storeys, and the space will be<br />
flexible and adaptive, allowing it<br />
to suit a range of needs.<br />
It will feature meeting spaces,<br />
current and future library collections<br />
spaces, performance,<br />
exhibition, display areas, children’s<br />
spaces and research and<br />
historical spaces.<br />
Construction on the $22.2<br />
million project is set to start in<br />
April next year, with handover<br />
pencilled in for July 2020.<br />
The district council’s recent<br />
Long Term Plan <strong>2018</strong>-2028<br />
includes a proposal for an additional<br />
eight-lane, 25m pool at<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> Aquatic Centre to meet<br />
rapidly increasing demand for<br />
additional capacity.<br />
It is now considering a larger<br />
proposal, for a new 10-lane, 25m<br />
main pool, along with reconfiguration<br />
of the existing pool.<br />
The new pool would have a<br />
depth range of 1.4 to 2m, and<br />
the 10-lane layout provides flexibility<br />
for deep water sports and<br />
other activities.<br />

SWIM: The district council<br />
will consider signing off an<br />
updated proposal for an<br />
extension to the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
Aquatic Centre at its public<br />
meeting today.<br />

The existing eight-lane pool<br />
would be retained, but reconfigured<br />
to provide depths from 0.9<br />
to 1.4m, which is still suitable for<br />
lane swimming.<br />
The revised proposal, with a<br />
total budget of $14.8 million, also<br />
includes a café, subject to a business<br />
case, which would service<br />
both the aquatic centre and the<br />
sports hub at Foster Park, and a<br />
feasibility study into future swim<br />
capacity in the Darfield area.<br />
