The City of Prince Albert is in discussions with a local contractor on future plans for the site of the former Angus Mirasty School. In 2019, the city made a trade with the Prince Albert Grand Council. In exchange for the Parkland Community Centre, the city acquired the parcel of land where the school used to sit on Fifth Avenue West. In April, the city released an Expression of Interest (EOI) regarding the land and its proposed redevelopment for residential use. “We received a number of inquiries about whether or not the city would be willing to sell, what that would look like, what the site would be developed like,” Craig Guidinger, Director of Planning and Development Services, said at this week’s executive meeting.
City gives administration go-ahead to begin discussions to develop former Angus Merasty School site Prince Albert City Hall Herald file photo. Prince Albert city council took the first step towards developing the former Angus Merasty School site in the West Hill by giving city administrators permission to begin talks with Miller Contracting. Miller was one of three companies who submitted an expression of interest (EOI) in the property. Mayor Greg Dionne said he liked their proposal, and was eager for discussion to start so residents could get a better idea of what the finished product would look like. “I like the plan and I’m waiting for the engagement,” Dionne said during Monday’s executive committee meeting. “I’m also looking forward to when we have something to (show) at a public meeting with the neighbourhood that will actually show the details where everything is going to go.”
Since 2008 they’ve hit many milestones including the land donation, and the province supplying operational funding, which will be $2 million per year. She explained they wanted to reach at least half of their fundraising goal before beginning construction and they’ve well exceeded that. They only have $1.1 million of their $4 million goal left to raise. “It’s just going to give people another option and an option that we need in this city and the surrounding communities,” she said. What comes next is the beginning of construction and the hospice will continue to fundraise to reach their goal. “This project has been a long time coming and we’ve persevered, we didn’t stop, and it’s just great to see all the support, and the continued support we have is amazing,” Mitchell said.
A Westminster man who had his barn significantly damaged by a fire earlier in May said a lot of his property could have been saved if it wasn’t for his poor internet connection.
