Former Catalyst Paper Tis’kwat mill site is attracting business - Powell River Peak

PREECEVILLE, Sask. – With Small Business Week approaching, leaders in rural Saskatchewan communities say economic development is increasingly about retaining existing businesses, filling service gaps and finding opportunities for sustainable growth. Representatives from Preeceville and Kamsack say their communities still see signs of business activity but face challenges common to many small towns, including aging infrastructure, vacant properties, and the high cost of new construction. In Preeceville, Chamber of Commerce president James Bodnar said economic development efforts are largely focused on maintaining the businesses already operating in the community. "I think most of what's going on is kind of holding our own and not losing businesses," Bodnar said. The town has seen some new commercial activity over the past year, including an accounting firm establishing an office in a former law office building. Another building was recently purchased, although plans for the property have not yet been announced.
