On Friday, April 24th we received the initial review by both the Ministry of Health and the South West LHIN of our Stage 2 Submission for the Centre Grey Hospital redevelopment project. The Ministry and the LHIN have reviewed the programs and services outlined in our Submission, as well as the physical space and the estimated costs for the new hospital.

As anticipated, we will be working on addressing the questions from the Ministry and the LHIN, and providing additional information and clarification on some of the finer details. We expect there will be considerable back and forth discussions with the Ministry prior to getting approval to move to Stage 3 – the Preliminary Design Development.

We remain optimistic that the project will proceed in a timely manner, and we look forward to providing further updates once we have final approval on our Stage 2 Submission.

Thank you.
