LANTZVILLE — Rising costs forced Island Health into producing new plans for a large 306-bed long-term care home on Lantzville’s southern edge.
As a result, the health authority acknowledged an initial projection of completing construction in 2027 won’t be met, confirmed Diane McKay, chief project officer for long term care for Island Health.
“We’ve completely re-designed the site and the building to make it more efficient on the site and reduce the costs associated with our project,” McKay told NanaimoNewsNOW at a recent open house at Lantzville’s Costin Hall.
