The council of Fort San, Sask., a resort village 70 km northeast of Regina, has voted no on letting Pine Lodge Treatment Centre relocate after the original site was damaged in a fire in December.
The addictions recovery centre, which offers a 28-day inpatient program funded by the province, was in the community of Indian Head, about 30 km to the south.
