Fernie city council has endorsed a lease modification agreement with the Fernie Child Care Society to support an expansion of daycare service.
City staff said the Fernie Child Care Society renegotiated its lease last fall for space at the Max Turyk Community Centre.
Since then, another operator at the facility has vacated their space, and the society wanted to assume the space.
The society is looking to expand its outdoor play space and increase enrollment in its $10-a-day child care program.
With the new lease, the city expects to see increased revenue of $49,266.24 over the next four years.
