YMCA LAND USE COMMUNICATION The YMCA of Fredericton is a dynamic charity connecting with more than 50,000 people across the region to build healthy communities. Since 1853, the YMCA has been promoting positive values that build spirit, mind and body. YMCA services include Membership, Health and Wellness, Employment, Child Care, Day Camping, Global & Community Programs, Youth and Leadership Development. In 2023 the YMCA of Fredericton Board of Directors and CEO formally adopted a new strategic plan “A YMCA where you belong!”. The plan has re-affirmed our YMCA’s commitment to serving the community while maintaining excellence in our Wellness Centre and Child Care operations. The plan also acknowledges opportunities exist for YMCA development where those two goals intersect. The YMCA of Fredericton will be exploring future “Land Use Opportunities” on the 570 York Street Property for community-based programs, capital investment and revenue generation. To ensure due diligence while exploring potential opportunities, we will be undertaking the following steps while considering a development project on the southwest parking lot at the corner of Albert Street and York Street. ·       Property surveyed for the purposes of sub-dividing and re-zoning. ·       Preliminary Elevation Drawing and Plan for any future site development ·       Soil testing and environmental site assessments. ·       Application to the city of Fredericton to Sub-Divide and Re-Zone a portion of the YMCA property. If the project steps above result in adequate opportunity, the YMCA Board of Directors will consider organizational factors and community feedback before moving forward with any development and will remain committed to keeping its members and our community informed. Question regarding this project may be directed to Darcy Delaney, President and CEO of YMCA of Fredericton. darcy.delaney@ymcafredericton.org
