peopleCare LTC Development

The Town of The Blue Mountains has entered into a significant partnership with peopleCare Communities to enable the development of a new long-term care (LTC) home in The Blue Mountains.

On April 9, 2026, it was announced that the location was shifted to the municipal property adjacent to the new fire hall site located south of 796511 Grey Road 19. Staff have undertaken a feasibility review and have been refining site concepts with peopleCare to ensure the proposed LTC home can be advanced in a manner that does not impair the functionality of the new fire hall and supports an efficient approach to servicing, including water, wastewater and stormwater.

The Town's initial work focused on a portion of the former Tee's Please property on Grey Road 19 in Craigleith. Through that process, environmental constraints were identified on the land that impacted site suitability for a long-term care home. 

This collaboration is a positive step towards fulfilling the community's long-standing need for increased access to LTC to meet the needs of local seniors and their families. This project has been made possible through Council’s commitment to work with peopleCare to identify potential sites and paths forward to build a LTC home. The Town is committed to ensuring full transparency through the land sale and planning process for this development.
