The City of Flin Flon has released a questionnaire seeking public input into the retirement living needs of our community over the next three to five years. This questionnaire is open to anyone who either currently lives in Flin Flon or plans on moving to the area within the next five years. Survey participants will be asked to identify the types of retirement living options they would prefer, along with any additional services they would like to see in the community upon retirement.

 Councillor Colleen McKee notes some of the retirement living models under consideration include ageing in place which is a model where participants stay in their homes and are offered light maintenance services for a fee; a life lease model which is a new build where a retiree would pay a lump sum which is then returned when the unit is vacated and a monthly amount for rent is also required; a condominium model where the unit is purchased and taxes and condo fees are paid; or a rental accommodation model with a monthly rental fee.

 A link to the questionnaire can be found on The City of Flin Flon’s website and Facebook page or attached to this story at www.flinflononline.com.  Paper copies can also be filled out and are available at the City Hall reception desk. The survey will be open until January 30th.
