Multi-purpose development planned featuring Indigenous health centre

Energetic City: Developers are planning to build a multi-purpose facility to help fill the healthcare gap in Fort St. John. Peace Holdings is working with the Treaty 8 Tribal Association to build a complex that includes an Indigenous health centre and apartments. The building is part of the planned Prairie Rose Park subdivision on 86th Street, which was acquired in 2012. “The health centre will be the anchor of this development and will provide counselling, medical services and nurses, perhaps, in the space that will be allocated for [Indigenious peoples],” says Peace Holdings representative Ron Brar.
