    MEDIA RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Sept. 25, 2020 King to begin offering limited in-person services Ice pad at Trisan Centre in Schomberg to re-open with conditions King Township will start re-opening some facilities and offering in-person services over the next several weeks in a cautious, phased approach, subject to demand and in conjunction with current public health protocols. The ice pad at the Trisan Centre in Schomberg is set to first re-open on Monday, September 28, while the ice pad at the Dr. William Laceby Nobleton Community Centre and Arena in Nobleton is anticipated to open mid-October, subject to demand. “We recognize the community needs to have recreational opportunities for play, fitness and overall physical and mental health and well-being,” said Mayor Steve Pellegrini. “That being said, there will be strict protocols in place to protect both participants and staff. I am also very pleased that enhanced curbside pickup and by appointment in-person services are being introduced.” The expansion of Trisan Centre services and programs, such as fitness programs, the walking track and curling, are to be introduced sometime in October/November, subject to adequate demand. Beginning on Wednesday, October 7, and every Wednesday thereafter, limited in-person services will be available by appointment only. The public will be served in-person at the King Township Heritage and Cultural Centre at 2920 King Road, King City. Only commissioning services (i.e. foreign pension forms, statutory declarations, affidavits) and the issuance of marriage licenses will be available. Priority will be given to King Township residents while non-residents will be accommodated subject to demand and availability.

  • King Expanding Services in Step Three
    MEDIA RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Friday, July 16, 2021 King Expanding Services in Step Three Trisan Vaccination Clinic continues to end of July, some in-person services will gradually resume in August and plans for phased facility re-openings to begin in September With key public health indicators continuing to improve and provincewide vaccination rates surpassing provincial targets in Ontario’s Roadmap to Reopen, the Ontario government has moved the province into Step Three of the Roadmap to Reopen at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, July 16th, 2021. “King is looking forward to expanding service offerings in accordance with increased gathering limits as included in Step Three and we remain committed to taking a gradual, safe approach to reopening,” said Mayor Steve Pellegrini. The health and safety of residents, program participants, visitors and staff, along with the continued operation of the vaccination clinic, remains the top priority while the Township acknowledges the public is eagerly looking for the return of recreational programs, and facilities to reopen. “Many of our staff continue to be redeployed to support King’s vaccination clinic at the Trisan Centre which will remain operational until July 29th. A phased approach for reopening is necessary to allow the Township to decommission and close-out the clinic, remobilize staff, provide necessary training and prepare facilities to reopen safely,” said Pellegrini. Subject to provincial guidelines, King is aiming to gradually reopen facilities and programs this fall beginning in September. However, the early rollout of Step Three now enables some limited in-person services to be accelerated beginning in August.
