Town of Nipawin to sell lots for new group home, gymnastics facility
A public meeting is set for later this month to finalize the sale of two local lots in Nipawin to allow for a new group home and gymnastics facility in the community.
The Town of Nipawin is hosting a public meeting May 28 to discuss the sale of two lots along 10th Avenue West in the community, between Third Street and Fifth Street West. The town intends to sell the lots for less than market value and without a public tender.
Doug Gudnason with the Nipawin Tumbler Gymnastics Club intends to open a new 6,000-square foot facility on one of the lots, at the corner of Third Street and 10th Avenue West. The club has been using Wagner Elementary School for classes, but outgrew it, he said.
Gudnason said he plans to set up a pre-fabricated building at the site, and have a local contractor set it up this summer. He said the new facility should be ready by the time classes start again in September.
