Uncertainty about new potential daycare, 20-unit apartment complex could be built in 2026
Construction of a daycare facility with 90 childcare spaces and a 20-unit apartment building, both announced in 2024, doesn’t appear to be starting this year.
According to La Ronge chief administrative officer Lyle Hannan, the developer of the daycare has not followed through with the acquisition of any parcel of town land at this time but may still be exploring site options in the region.
In 2024, the Town of La Ronge decided to support a new daycare facility in the way of offering land below market value, covering costs for sewer and water connections, as well as a five-year municipal tax abatement. The new facility, which could be built at 910 Boardman Street, is a project initiated by Zak’s Building Group (ZBG) out of Hague.
The single-storey development would be 7,000 square feet, be operated under a non-profit organization based in Saskatoon, and be open to residents of the region.
