Wellington Town Hall Expression of Interest
Consultation has concluded
Latest Update
Council accepted the Wellington Town Hall Foundation’s Expression of Interest proposal for the future use and stewardship of the Wellington Town Hall property. Municipal staff is working with the Wellington Town Hall Foundation to develop a Memorandum of Understanding outlining the terms, conditions, and a timeline for the phased transition of ownership and stewardship of the Wellington Town Hall. The Memorandum of Understanding will come back to Council for approval.

Project Background
County Council struck the Wellington Town Hall Expression of Interest (EOI) Working Group in February 2024. The working group is tasked with recommending to Council the content and scope of an EOI related to the future use and potential sale of the Town Hall.
Through the EOI process, the municipality can outline specific conditions for protecting heritage values or stipulate any future use for the site. The EOI does not bind the municipality to accept any of the proposals or take any actions. In addition, the EOI can request submissions that outline the proponent's profile and its development plan. The EOI allows the municipality to understand a proponent's projected use and operation of the property.

A similar process was followed for the municipally owned property at 282/284 Wellington Main Street (the former Wellington Convenience Store/Pizzeria). The municipality divested itself of the property through an EOI process after the formation of an internal working group and public consultation.
