At an October meeting, council chose to delay its decision on whether the facility can operate, despite its close proximity to the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant, in order to further discuss the matter with the plant’s co-owners and the regions of Durham and York. The building is located within 150 metres of the plant, which is against ministry of environment guidelines. The location is zoned for industrial uses, but the centre is currently operating and caters to about 600 members. “I love my gym and coaches,” Justine Veillette said. “Please don’t close my gym. It’s all my life.” The 10-year-old Ajax resident and provincial competitor, who trains nearly 20 hours a week at the gym, was just one of nearly 15 people who spoke to council in support of the PAC remaining open. Coun- cil chambers was packed with athletes, parents and coaches. “The parents believe in exercise and support for their kids,” Ms. Large said. “And it’s a family.
