City makes Lister deal official
Sep, 13 2007 - 6:20 AM
HAMILTON (AM900 CHML) - The Lister Block agreement, between the city and the provincial government, is now official.
Hamilton City Council has formally signed the deal, which requires it to house staff in the heritage building under a 20 year lease.
In return, the city receives seven million dollars in promised provincial funding to assist in the redevelopment, regardless of the outcome of next month's election.
Mayor Eisenberger say the agreement also requires that a lease be finalized with the developer by March, and that city staff move into the restored Lister by 2010.
