Council to Review Non-Profit Housing Options

Its going to be another year or more before Kenora City council makes a decision about whether the local non-profit housing corporations should be merged.

Council decided last night to set up a review committee to look at the issue.

Jack Pearson is the chair of the Keewatin Non-Profit Housing Corporation and says there is no real reason to force a merger of the two boards.

Pearson says the city has suggested it can save about 20 thousand dollars a year by amalgamating the two boards, but he doesn't see where those savings can be made.
