The proposal involves:

• the development of 320 LTC beds that includes the Home’s current 243 beds and additional 77 beds allocated by the MLTC, subject to project approval and meeting all licensing requirements under the Long-Term Care Homes Act, 2007 (LTCHA); and
• the issuance of a new licence for 320 beds with a term of up to 30 years following the development of the Home at 1200 Princess Street in Kingston, Ontario.
