The YM-YWCA has the green light to proceed with its dream of building a permanent home next to Earl Haig Park.

Council unanimously approved a resolution Monday to deed to the Y – for a nominal $1 sum – a 4.5-acre parcel of city land that contains the Go Kart track beside Earl Haig Park, south of the civic centre, off Market Street South.


Until the new permanent home is ready, the Y will operate most programs at its transitional Family Program Centre site that is being build in the former Work Wear building at Wellington and Clarence streets.
