The South Interlake Planning District is on the move.

SIPD is relocating its Stonewall office to the South End Mall from its current location in the RM of Rockwood municipal building.
The new SIPD address will be Unit 7-405 3rd Ave. South in Stonewall.
General manager Eric Shaw said the reasons are two-fold for the move.
“The RM of Rockwood’s municipal operations have grown in recent years and they require additional office space for their staff,” he said. “And the SIPD requires a larger space for its operation in Stonewall.”
SIPD’s old office was 600 square feet for four staff members, he added.
“The new office is 2,300 square feet, and it is professionally designed to accommodate current staff and a new SIPD board chambers. The new office also provides some additional flex space so that SIPD staff who normally work in CentrePort can also work in Stonewall, as needed,” Shaw said.
“This will be beneficial for several staff, including our building inspectors, our bylaw enforcement officer and myself. With such a large district, this work arrangement promotes flexibility and efficiency, as several staff need to be in different parts of the district for different work duties through the course of a week.”
As a result of the move, SIPD’s operations are pausing temporarily in Stonewall from June 9 to 19, and the new office is expected to open on Monday, June 22.
In the meantime, anyone who needs SIPD’s services can reach out to the CentrePort office at Unit 5-15 Davis Way in the RM of Rosser. They can also email SIPD info@sipd.ca or call 204-467-5587.
