A Fort Frances councillor is looking for some modifications to the Ice for Kids Arena.
Sharon Tibbs wants the town to install metal hand rails along stairs of the arena's seating area.
Tibbs says she got the idea after seeing the rails in use at an arena in Sault Ste. Marie.
"I paid particular attention to the crowd movement and watched the ability of seniors and people with various disabilities to negotiate the stairs," says Tibbs. "I noted how they were able to securely and independently reach their seats with the hand rail."
Tibbs says with a push to make government-run facilities more accessible, the town maybe able to access provincial dollars for the project.
