KC Charities Launches Columbian Place

Another significant announcement has been made in the Pleasant Hill Village.

K.C. Charities Inc. held a ceremonial sod turning at St. Mary's Parish Hall.

Attended by 170 people, the sod turning is a major new development for Pleasant Hill Village.

'Columbian Place' is the name given to the new seniors' low income rental complex.

A total of 75 one and two-bedroom seniors' units will be constructed on the 1400 block of 20th Street West.

The project will cost $13.5 million dollars. The Federal, Provincial and City of Saskatoon are all funding partners in the project.

Set to start digging immediately, the project will take over 15 months to complete. When finished, the residents will be an important part of the Pleasant Hill Village revitalization project and enjoy the new park space and watch as school children play at the new St. Mary School.

Bob Jeanneau and Bill Coumont have been driving forces behind the planning of the project.

Congratulations to K. C. Charities Inc.
