The Elliot Lake chapter of The Navy League of Canada says it has waited long enough for a new home.
The organization has been meeting in various places for months after their former location, a building they rented from the city, was demolished because it had deteriorated beyond repair.
Navy League representative Tom Turner told Elliot Lake council the organization has paid the city some $3,500 in rent even though they have not had use of their rented space since 2017.
Council agreed to construct a new steel building on a refurbished concrete pad at the site at cost of $24,000 with most of the construction work to be done by city staff.
The building will be ordered up as soon as possible from Olympic Steel.
