The Township of St. Joseph welcomes investment, development and settlement inquiries.

Municipal sewer and water services, introduced into Richards Landing eight years ago, were built to accommodate significant growth over the next 20 years. Since their installation, many choice, serviced lots throughout the village have become available for development.

Reasonably priced at a fraction of city real estate, they provide an economic advantage to a growing family looking to build a new home, the entrepreneur looking to build a shop or office or artisan wanting a small town studio.

A number of larger parcels of private and municipal land are also available for more ambitious undertakings. St. Joseph Township council is eager to work with developers and entrepreneurs whose projects are sensitive to the rural character and natural surroundings of the island to ensure a minimum of red tape and the smooth approval of zoning applications and site plans.

St. Joseph Township also offers modern land - based and cellular communications, high speed Internet access, 3 - phase power, public elementary education, hospital and health care services, 24 - hour banking access, and LOW taxes.  St. Joseph Township continues to enjoy one of the lowest tax rates in Central Algoma, a position it has held for many years.

This year, an community development coordinator was hired to help council review its development and tourism marketing strategies.  This will allow council to identify new economic development opportunities and refocus its tourism initiatives to maximize its current marketing dollars.

St. Joseph Township is the premier location in Central Algoma for settlement and development. Come visit us and see for yourself what opportunities await you or drop us an email for further information.
