The City of Peterborough is finalizing an agreement for the naming rights for the community complex for 10 years, with the revenue going toward the capital costs to build the new facility according to a press release.

The community complex will include a twin-pad arena, a Peterborough Public Library branch, an indoor walking track, multi-purpose space and office space to be available for lease. An aquatics centre will be added in the future.

“On behalf of the City of Peterborough, I want to thank Miskin Law for this important investment in our community,” said Councillor Lesley Parnell. “The Miskin Law Community Complex will be the City’s premier community complex, providing something for every member of our community, from children learning to skate, to adults walking the track, to seniors and students visiting the library. This is an investment in the health and wellbeing of Peterborough.”

“Through sponsorship of this vital community facility, Miskin Law is sharing its success and saying thank you to Peterborough for being our home,” said Murray Miskin, Miskin Law senior lawyer. “We hope that residents and visitors will enjoy using the Miskin Law Community Complex for many years.”

As part of the construction project budget the City plans to raise $1 million through sponsorships. The facility is anticipated to open in fall 2024.
