Carleton, McMaster work with city councils on infrastructure changes

Carleton University and McMaster University are working with their respective city councils on changes to their infrastructure. The City of Ottawa will vote this week on whether to move forward with plans to build an aquatic centre on Carleton’s campus. Councillor Shawn Menard, who put forward the motion, explained that Carleton is prepared to partner with the city by providing land and a “significant” financial contribution. Meanwhile, McMaster has made an application to demolish a vacant industrial building operated by the university’s McMaster Innovation Park.
