Stratford City Council’s special meeting scheduled for Thursday has been cancelled.
The meeting was to address an official plan amendment and a zone change application for land on Vivian Line, that could be used for a long-term care facility.
City council voted to sell the vacant land on Vivian Line, with an eye towards a 160-bed long-term care facility. Sixty of the beds are replacing a former LTC home on Mornington Avenue that closed down, so technically 100 beds would be new.
Members of council have said long-term care beds are an urgent and undeniable need in Stratford.
The matter will now be considered at the Sept. 9 regular meeting of city council.
