The Albion Twin-Rink Arena Expansion also failed, with 11,553 no votes and 9,501 yes. The City said all election-night results were preliminary and that the Chief Election Officer would declare official results at 4 p.m. on October 21.

A total of 21,612 ballots were cast, with turnout reported at approximately 30.18% of eligible voters. The City said staff would seek direction from the new council because none of the three projects was approved.
