The Proposed Project

Over the past few years, the community has experienced steady growth and is now comprised of approximately 2,000 inhabitants and, according to all indications, it will experience sustained growth over the next few years. To support this growth, as well as the community's decision to reuse the existing baseball field as the site for its new sports complex, it is now necessary to build a new baseball field. The new site will be located at the corner of Amikobi and des Étangs Streets.

The total footspring is approximately 34 400 m².
