The committee working on a proposed Creative Business Incubator in Minto has viewed several properties as possible locations for the facility.
The current OPP station in Palmerston is one of the locations under consideration. A new police station is currently under construction at Teviotdale.
The former movie theatre on Elora Street in Harriston and the second floor of Harry Stones Pizza Burger, also on Elora Street, are also under consideration.
Consultant Linda Reader reported to the Minto Cultural Roundtable Committee, which is spearheading the project, that a survey of business and community members has drawn positive response to the project.
A business incubator would involve providing a currently vacant commercial building as office space for a number of small businesses at an affordable rate. The businesses could share equipment, such as a photocopier, to keep costs down. Mentoring and other services would be provided through community partners.
