Charlottetown council clears way for Holland College living lab

News

The City of Charlottetown’s councillors have voted unanimously to rezone a parcel of land, enabling Holland College to proceed with creating the John and Christine Andrew Centre of Excellence in Watershed Management. CBC states that the rezoning allows the institution to set up indoor labs, office space, and accommodations. “Plans are to do the barn over, keeping it historic, but there may be labs in the barn,” said Charlottetown Councillor Terry Bernard. “The homestead will be offices and some scholars may come to stay, but there will be no students staying there.” The centre is named in honour of the Andrews family, which donated the parcel of land.
