Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The goal of this project is to repair the Cultural Centre building heating system so that it keeps the Centre warm in the winter months, so we can utilize the building for programs and events. The measure of success will be a functioning heating system that keeps the interior temperature in the 65 to 70 degrees range in the winter months and allowing the building to be used for the Centre's programs and events in the winter months.
