City approves rezoning of former Riverside School Site
MEDICINE HAT, AB — City Council has approved the rezoning of the former Riverside School Site. Council hosted a public hearing on the rezoning, which was originally postponed when Covenant Health, the owner of the land, had its lawyer send a letter saying it needed an additional month.
The public hearing didn’t attract many community members, so the rezoning went smoothly, with a unanimous vote.
201 2 St NW was rezoned from Community Services to Direct Control, in order to facilitate the development of a proposed senior’s complex by Covenant Health.
Covenant bought the site for $850,000 in July 2018.
