KDSB Working to Dispose of Social Housing Units

Another step in the possible closure of social housing units in Dinorwic, Hudson and Minaki.

The Kenora District Services Board has approved a motion to submit a request to the provincial government to dispose of the properties.

The 44-units are under utilized and deteriorating.

Officials say it will cost $2.5-million to maintain the current standards next year and cite additional heating costs.

The KDSB report to the province does include replacement options for the current tenants.
