The Northwest Catholic District School board is giving its support behind the proposed development of new tennis courts in Fort Frances.
The board has agree to enter into a joint venture with the town of Fort Frances and the Rainy River District School Board that would allow the courts to be developed at St. Francis Sportsfield.
The Catholic Board would provide the land while the town and public board would split costs of development, estimated at $400-thousand.
The pubic board has yet to formally discuss the proposal.
