WEYBURN - The City of Weyburn has temporarily closed Crescent Point Place and Tom Zandee Sports Arena following the discovery of a minor ammonia leak from the arena’s ice plant chiller. The chiller, installed during the 2023/24 season, is currently out of operation, leaving the ice plant non-functional.
City staff are collaborating with refrigeration contractors to locate the source of the leak and determine a repair timeline while adhering to strict safety measures.
Although there is no risk to the public, the City has closed both facilities entirely as a precautionary measure. All activities and events at these venues are canceled until repairs are completed.
At this time, there is no established timeline for the repairs.
“We recognize the inconvenience this causes for our user groups and the community,” Director of Leisure Services, Andrew Crowe. “We are committed to resolving the issue as quickly and safely as possible and will keep the public updated as new information becomes available.”
The City of Weyburn will provide updates on the status of the repairs and facility reopening as more details are confirmed.
