Land Ambulence Base Gets the Go Ahead From KDSB

Work is finally progressing on the new Land Ambulance Base in Kenora.

The Kenora District Services Board has accepted a 2.836-million dollar tender from Jarnell Contracting for the construction of the base.

CAO Dan McNeill says he's relieved to see this project move forward.

However, the City of Kenora Planning Department has notified the KDSB that it won't be able to lease the existing parking spaces at the site, which may force the Board to construct its own parking lot at an estimated cost of 55-thousand dollars.
