The old Haldi Road school could be up for sale once more.

In an e-mail Monday, area resident Laura Jagodnik said the city's planning department has told her someone is interested in purchasing the building but not for use as a recovery centre.

She said rezoning will be needed for the use the backer has in mind and a meeting with her and two other area residents has been tentatively scheduled for Wednesday with the city and the proponent.

In May 2015, the the board of the Northern Supportive Recovery Centre for Women said it has ceased efforts to convert the school on the Leslie Road property into a 30-bed facility.

The proposal won council's support in April 2013 and it weathered two separate legal challenges but area homeowners remained strongly opposed to the concept.
