Residents living near the old Haldi Road school will see flyers in the mail and be contacted in person about the latest proposal for the property, according to a resident who met with city staff and the property's potential buyer this week.
A neighbourhood meeting will be held at the school towards the end of February to address any questions or concerns, Laura Jagodnik added in an email to The Citizen.
"In my opinion the city has approached the Haldi Road Community in a positive and pro-active manner," she said.
The site is currently zoned to house a 30-bed recovery centre for women.
The controversial proposal weathered two separate legal challenges but area homeowners remained strongly opposed to the concept and in May 2015, the centre's board said it had ceased efforts to convert the school on the Leslie Road property into a recovery centre.
Exactly what the buyer has in mind for the site, Jagodnik did not say. She did say the buyer will need to rezone the property for the intended use and will live on the site.
