Cranbrook council approved the donation of a portion of city owned land for an upcoming seniors housing project.
The land at 5th Street South is being given for $1 and will have a 99 year lease.
The Rotary Club is looking to build 12-14 affordable seniors housing units on the site.
The city approved changes last month to the OCP and zoning to allow the project.
The city had to rezone a section that was park space but also designated land along the creek as park space.
City staff said a flood plain exemption will have to be approved by council before the project can begin.
