The Municipality of Leamington is moving forward with an attainable and affordable housing project on the former Leamington District Secondary School property located at 125 Talbot Street West in Leamington.

Background

In July 2020, Leamington Council approved the purchase of the former high school property to encourage the development of attainable housing to address the current housing shortage in Leamington.

The Municipality retained Dillon Consulting to develop a concept plan to provide the basis for a municipally initiated Zoning By-law Amendment and to guide the preparation of a request for proposals seeking qualified proposals from developers to purchase and develop the former high school lands.

The concept plan provides for a range of housing types and divides the lands into three segments with a total of 293 residential dwelling units.

    Thank you for your interest in the attainable housing project.

    Unfortunately, details regarding rentals and purchases are not available at this time.

    We would encourage you to follow our project page on Let's Talk Leamington, where information will be shared as the project progresses.

  • Share I like the ideas presented here but I have several additions I think the town should make to the plan. The first is that each of these apartment buildings ground floor should allow for commercial space which should not allow the cadets space but allow more local and diverse business to spring up. My second thought may be more outside of the box for this area but, put housing above the grocery store. This would allow more people to live in the area and is quite common throughout Europe. on Facebook Share I like the ideas presented here but I have several additions I think the town should make to the plan.
