TERRACE BAY NEWS SEPTEMBER 7, 1972 HOTEL PROPOSED AS HOME FOR THE AGED ~The Chairman of the Board of Management of the District of Thunder Bay Home for the aged, Mr. James Syminton, was informed on Tuesday August 28, 1972 that Kimberly Clark of Canada Limited were prepared to donate the 54 room Terrace Bay Motor Hotel to the Board of Management for use as a Home for the Aged. The building is located on a five acre site adjacent to Highway 17 and overlooking Lake Superior. It has been maintained in excellent condition. The Members of the Board of Management, Mr. Hugh Ellis, Consulting Architect with the Ministry of Community and Social Services, and the Adminis- trator of Pinewood Court, made an inspection tour of the Building and site on Friday, September Ist. Following the tour the Board Members met with Mr. Grant Puttock, Resident Operations Manager, and members of the Terrace Bay Municipal Council . Mr. Syminton, Board Chairman, expressed the appreciation of the Board of Management for the offer and pointed out that there were certain steps that would have to be taken before the offer could be accepted. The first was completion of a detailed study by Mr. Hugh Ellis of the construction of the building and the necessary alterations to bring it up to the stand- ards required for a home for the aged. In the event that Mr. Ellis' efforts indicate that the building would be suitable, then it would be necessary fo obtain estimates for the capital costs involved and to obtain by laws supporting the project from a majority of the sixteen participating municipal ities, approval of the capital costs by the Ministry of Community and Social Services and approval of a borrowing by law by the Ontario Municipal Board would also be required.
