Schomberg Community Hall is getting a revamp after King council approved more than $1.5 million for upgrades and renovations.

The hall needs several upgrades to meet code requirements and to improve accessibility, energy efficiency and usability of the facility, according to a staff report.

The tender was awarded to Construction Solutions ASI Inc. for $1,269,178 and work is set to be completed by May, in time for the Schomberg Agricultural Fair. The rest of the project's budget will go toward design, demolition, site services and contract administration.

The renovations will include elevator installation, automatic door openers and LED lighting among other improvements.
