City, college in talks over journalism school site, Downtown property eyed by St. Clair
October 8, 2009
Negotiations are underway between the city and St. Clair College to purchase a downtown municipal property to house a journalism school.
"It's positive for the college and it's positive for the downtown," Mayor Eddie Francis said. He said draft terms of a potential sale were approved by city council following a closed-door meeting last week with college officials.
It was announced early last month that the college was getting more than $5 million in federal funding for an enhanced journalism program under Ottawa's recently created Southern Ontario Community Adjustment Fund.
Francis said at Monday night's council meeting that a positive announcement for the downtown was coming soon, but he wouldn't provide details. The mayor added on Tuesday that lawyers were finalizing details that would see a downtown building occupied by the school.
