M’CHIGEENG—M’Chigeeng First Nation Chief Morgan Hare said that he and his council are studying the proposed 39-lot Tracey Road subdivision on Lake Mindemoya in depth before voicing their opinion on the matter.

“We have just learned about this,” said Chief Hare, noting there is a lot to unpack from the documentation being supplied by the developer and the residents opposing the plan. The band does intend to respond to the Manitoulin Planning Board on the development.

“It is early in the process,” noted Chief Hare.
