Extension of nearly two months needed to complete ‘third-party consultations,’ university says
Laurentian University says it needs more time to respond to a Freedom of Information Act request made by Sudbury.com last month for a repair options report on the long-closed Jeno Tihanyi Olympic Gold Pool.When Sudbury.com requested a copy of the document from university communications staff in February, the university declined to provide it.
However, in this case, Laurentian University said the time limit for answering our request has been extended until June due to the necessity for third-party consultations, said a letter to Sudbury.com from the university on April 12. With LU having exited insolvency in late 2022 and able to spend money on repairing more than the absolute essentials, Laurentian has been investigating what it would cost to repair and reopen the facility, and earmarked $300,000 in its 2023-24 budget for that purpose.
