A Kelowna-based drug and alcohol addiction recovery society may have seen it91裸聊视频檚 plan for a 49-unit apartment building scuttled because of provincial government policy, but that doesn91裸聊视频檛 mean it91裸聊视频檚 given up on it91裸聊视频檚 desire to operate such a facility.

So Freedom91裸聊视频檚 Door Society is applying to operate a new building in Kelowna that B.C. Housing is planning.

Details of how large the facility would be and where it would be located have yet to be revealed publicly, but Tom Smithwick of Freedom91裸聊视频檚 Door said he would like to see on the land his organization had secured for its Freedom House project, at the corner McCurdy Road and Rutland Road.

That land is already zoned to allow a 49-unit apartment building.

The Freedom House project faltered earlier this year when the province refused to provide a $4 million grant because Freedom91裸聊视频檚 Door provide91裸聊视频檚 an abstinence-based treatment program, not a harm reduction program.

That decision lead to Freedom91裸聊视频檚 Door buying a sixth duplex for its program earlier this year, bringing the number of beds it will have for program to 56. The new duxplex, beside one it already owns on Belaire Avenue in Kelowna is expected to open next week.

Smithwick said managing the new B.C. Housing building could be another way to provide the apartment units it was looking for at Freedom House. They were to be for graduates of the the society91裸聊视频檚 program, not treatment beds for men going through the program.

91裸聊视频淭he same goals can be achieved in different ways,91裸聊视频� said Smithwick, adding he is optimistic Freedom91裸聊视频檚 Door can be successful in winning the contract to management the new building.

A decision on who will operate the yet to be built building is expected by the end of November.

The Freedom91裸聊视频檚 Door application will be submitted next week.
