Former paper mill site facing demolition Feb 17, 2016 11:10 AM

The once quiet site of Prince Albert’s former paper mill will soon be busy with activity.

Several building structures have been deemed unsafe and are unnecessary for any future operations. The paper mill, paper additives, sheeter and folio are among the buildings slated for demolition.

The demolition project is anticipated to take nine months.

“The buildings have been damaged by the recent plough winds and without the paper machine housed there anymore, the damaged buildings are just a just a liability,” Joel Young with Paper Excellence said. Young’s company owns and operates the mill.
