New Mandate for LONG-TERM CARE Homes

SCM Redevelopment Update
October 19, 2021
The Town of Iroquois Falls held their public meeting to sever the land to AGH on August 30, 2021. This has now been approved as well as the rezoning for a Long-Term Care home. Our next steps are to update our costing of the 96-bed build; submit a financial budget, financing plan, etc. to the Ministry for their review. Once they approve our financial information, they will hold their public consultations for the increase in beds and the new location before issuing a Development Agreement to build. We are hoping this will be completed in early 2022.
