    Update on Campus of Care Project

    Date:

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    The Town of The Blue Mountains would like to advise the public of additional information regarding the Campus of Care project.

    The Campus of Care project was initially proposed to be a development that would have included 160 long-term care beds, retirement living, workforce housing, daycare and multi-family units. On November 8, 2024, it was announced that negotiations with SkyDev and peopleCare, the proposed developers of the project, had ceased and that the Campus of Care project would no longer be proceeding at 125 Peel Street. On November 25, 2024, Council put forward a motion to continue to work with peopleCare to review other properties in the Town for a potential long-term care facility. 

    The Town would like to recognize the commitment of all parties in the negotiations of the proposed Agreements of Purchase and Sale to realize a vision for the property that would be economical and provide significant community benefit. 

    “Eighteen different versions of the Agreements were prepared by the parties through the negotiation process. The decision to end negotiations was not arrived at lightly, and it came only after full consideration by Council and staff of what was in the best interest of the Town,” said Mayor Andrea Matrosovs. “Unfortunately, we were unable to come to an agreement, but we look forward to continuing to work with peopleCare to identify additional sites in the Town that could support a long-term care facility.”

    A staff report will be brought forward at the January 13, 2025, Committee of the Whole meeting that will include additional information regarding the Campus of Care project. The report will be released as part of the agenda prior to the January 13 meeting.

    VIDEO: 張哲瀚Zhang Zhehan 紀錄片《八月》

    《八月》是中國演員張哲瀚首次擔任導演的紀錄片,2024年4月14日上線。 該片記錄了張哲瀚在2021年8月突遇網路風暴,演藝人生頃刻被顛倒後的一次自我療愈之旅。 當舞臺與燈光不再,當事業與生活被網路上的不實資訊和惡意扭曲震碎,張哲瀚選擇在兩年後的8月,以自己熱愛的方式向著真實的世界重新出發。從香格里拉到拉薩的騎行之路上,他遇見雪山和冰川,遇見草木牛羊,遇見許多個普通而動人的面孔;他傾聽天地之聲,傾聽陌生人的故事,也傾聽內心的痛和愛。 曾經的8月還未終結,以後的8月依然會來。而這一個《八月》意義非常。 #zhangzhehan_super3 #張哲瀚 #張哲瀚八月 #紀錄片八月 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLwMG6XoJ34&t=11s
