A $200-million project at Confederation Park Community Centre was halted after city council began to look at how it could scale back the project.

Provincial legislation changed how developers pay municipalities for amenities through the rezoning process.

The new rules set parameters for how fees collected for amenities can be used for new projects rather than upgrading or replacing existing facilities.
