Perhaps this is overly simplistic, but County needs a new building and Central Frontenac appears to have too many buildings. The former schoolhouse in Parham is large, impressive looking with ample parking, near highway 38 and very central to the large majority of citizens of the Frontenac counties. Having County in Parham could bring economic benefits to that community. But moreover doing this would demonstrate that politicians do not always just waste taxpayers' money, but at times can save taxpayers' money. I encourage County and Central Frontenac to investigate this option.
With respect to the idea of using the schoolhouse land in Sharbot Lake for a new retirement home, I would hope that the use of any more public land or funds to build another building in Sharbot Lake would be decided by full council and only after wide ranging public consultation.
