A couple of irrigation projects in Okotoks on the books since 2004 should be able to be completed this year.

Operations Manager Dave Robertson says unforeseen delays have pushed up the price tag at Littler field and Wylie athletic park

"It's been on the books for different reasons for being delayed. The costs of the projects have gone up but on the good side there is some funding dollars available that will off-set the increase."

Council also agreed to provide 25-thousand dollars for temporary irrigation at the new Okotoks Dawgs baseball diamond.
