Fort Frances, ON, Canada / 93.1 The Border Apr 26, 2021 11:13 AM A request to rezone the former St. Michael’s School property to permit low rent apartments comes back to town council tonight. The Rainy River District Social Services Administration Board is behind the project. The town has received eighty letters from area residents objecting to the rezoning. Many are upset with a proposal to have five eight-plexes on what was the school’s playground. A report from administration notes the land is private property, and the town has no authority to order the greenspace and playground remain open. It also states it’s not within the town’s authority to negotiate land swaps as part of a rezoning request.
