Linden Housing Co-Op is calling an audible after Lanark County’s decision to hang onto 99 Christie Lake Road for future Lanark Lodge expansion.
They were hoping to build up to 80 co-op units on the site.
Chair Steven Welchner knows the county has competing priorities and respects the decision, as they’re now looking elsewhere.
The organization had already raised over $30,000 for a feasibility study, but its value is not lost because of they way they drew it up.
They’ve since looked at lots in Perth and hope in about a month they’ll have identified their next property.
