Public Health and AON Strike New Conditional Sale of 185 King St.
Written by admin, January 5, 2015
January 5, 2015 – AON Inc. and Peterborough Public Health announced today that they have reached a new conditional deal for the purchase of the first three floors of the downtown office building at 185 King St. Once finalized, the new location will allow Public Health to bring all programs under one roof and make it easier for residents to access public health services.
The offer is conditional on financing, and staff will be meeting with provincial and municipal funders early in the new year to negotiate their contributions towards this purchase.
“We are optimistic that funding can be secured promptly in order to remove the conditions on the offer and finalize a deal,” said Brent Woodford, Director of Corporate Services. “We are very pleased about the potential relocation to the downtown core and have our programs and clinics closer to related community services and more accessible by transit.”
Brad Smith, President of AON Inc. echoed these sentiments. “This deal is an integral addition to the development of Downtown Peterborough and we look forward to finalizing the sale and being a part of the relocation of these important services for the benefit of the community.”
Further details about the conditional offer will be made public as they become available.
