MEGA HOSPITAL GROW GRANT FOR
WINDSOR’S
ZONING PLAN
The controversial site of the new
mega-hospital has taken another step forward.
The zoning plan has been submitted to the
City of Windsor by Windsor Regional Hospital.
The plan also includes details about building
up the surrounding area of the proposed site.
The city’s planning department can take 30
days to review the submission before
responding. Changes can be requested by the
planning department, and then the plan will
become available to the public for them to
read.
After the plan is public, open meetings will
be held to allow residents to give their
feedback.
TUNNEL TOLL INCREASE
The fee to come to Windsor from Detroit
using the tunnel has increased.
The USD rate has not changed, but the
Canadian dollar rate has increased from $6
to $6.25. The Nexpress rate has also
increased.
DOWNTOWN
MISSION
The Downtown Mission is getting almost half
a million dollars over the next three years.
The grant comes from the Ontario Trillium
Foundation and will go towards the Mission’s
Enterprise program. Enterprise helps clients of
the Mission who face barriers in obtaining
employment.
The Enterprise program has existed since
2010 and was expanded in 2016.
STANDARD LEASE
A new Ontario-standard lease form has
been approved.
The standard form will be effective
beginning April 30 and will ensure
landlords and tenants are
communicating in clear language so
there are no miscommunications.
