    Johnson Health Technologies Canada will provide the layout, supply and install of fitness equipment at the Corner Brook Regional Recreation Centre in the amount of $194,218.90 HST included.

    Corner Brook city council approved a proposal at Monday night’s meeting that deals with fitness equipment at the new Regional Recreation Centre. Councillor Pamela Keeping says a request for proposals was posted last month.  An RFP was posted by the City of Corner Brook on June 10, 2024 for the layout, supply, and install of fitness equipment at the Corner Brook Regional Recreation Centre. The RFP closed on July 5, 2024 and there were five proposals that were received. PROPOSED RESOLUTION: Be it RESOLVED that the council of the City of Corner Brook accept the proposal by Johnson Health Technologies Canada for the layout, supply and install of fitness equipment at the Corner Brook Regional Recreation Centre in the amount of $194,218.90 HST included. Meanwhile, the city’s Director of Finance and Administration Sieven Maistry says funding for this will come solely from the city. Director of Recreation Service Peter Robinson says there may be other requests coming. The city will be providing fridges to the daycares, but Robinson says everything else will be covered by the daycare.
