For the South Muskoka site, a greenfield approach where a hospital would be built on a different piece of land is also contemplated.<\/p>\n<p>The Task Force received an update on the final \u2018blocking and stacking\u2019 workshop with clinicians in December that confirmed the space needs for the future services at each of the Two Acute Sites and the appropriate clinical adjacencies. From these workshops, the architectural consultant Stantec has developed high-level floor plans that were shown to the Task Force. The floor plans depict the blocks of space anticipated for each of the various services on each potential floor of each building that will be sent to a cost consultant for construction cost estimates. Stantec also showed the conceptual development options of where and how buildings could take shape on the properties in the future in line with the most ideal expansion and\/or development areas.<\/p>\n<p>The Task Force confirmed plans to engage the community through information sessions across the region the week of March 4-8 where the building options being considered will be explained and community feedback invited through online survey and hard copy forms.<\/p>\n<p>The Task Force continued to discuss the local share requirement for financing the Two Acute Sites redevelopment. The Task Force received a presentation from a charitable sector consultant (KCI) regarding the feasibility of raising the community\u2019s local share of the redevelopment cost through donations. KCI examined the Foundations\u2019 philanthropic history to help estimate each Foundation\u2019s capacity for capital redevelopment fundraising and also provides campaign advice.<\/p>\n<p>The Task Force is comprised of the following members:<\/p>\n<p>Cameron Renwick (Chair)<br \/>\nHuntsville Mayor Scott Aitchison<br \/>\nDr. Sheena Branigan<br \/>\nNatalie Bubela<br \/>\nCharlane Cluett<br \/>\nDr. Caroline Correia<br \/>\nDr. Keith Cross<br \/>\nJohn Curran<br \/>\nJan Davidson<br \/>\nPeter Deane<br \/>\nDonna Denny<br \/>\nMichael Duben<br \/>\nHarold Featherston<br \/>\nDr. Graeme Gair<br \/>\nDr. Biagio Iannantuono<br \/>\nDr. Jennifer Macmillan<br \/>\nDr. David Mathies<br \/>\nCathy McMurray<br \/>\nEsther Millar<br \/>\nBracebridge Mayor Graydon Smith<br \/>\nTerry Shields<br \/>\nEric Spinks<br \/>\nCathy Still<br \/>\nBeth Ward<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!
