Is this building going to be on the current CNC site or will it be located elsewhere?

This is a very good news story for Prince George. CNC does a good job of creating skilled labor, and this should only help the youth of the area that much more.

I believe that the TEC building is on campus.

I noticed, while visiting CNC Dental, this morning that there is construction activity at the south end of the west parking lot at CNC.

I assumed that the money making paid parking lot was being expanded.

They did some work on underground services last year where the building will be located - north of the power plant, between there and 18th.

This is a good news story for Prince George. Lots of good paying local jobs, and local contractors.

Yes, good news for the trades and long overdue. The trades keep the world functioning. We all know what the politicians and bureaucracy do!
