This story has been revised to correct the location of the public meeting.

A proposed redevelopment in the community of Merritton has residents on edge.

The land at 10 Seymour Ave. is currently occupied by private school Royal Imperial Collegiate of Canada and the property is owned by Fullview International Group Inc.

A development proposal from Fullview International to the City of St. Catharines has the property owners hoping to replace the school with six residential apartment buildings that would range in height from three to 12 storeys along Seymour Avenue. The construction of the proposed development is estimated to span five years.

There will be a public meeting at Merritton Community Centre on Dec. 9 at 7 p.m. for residents to ask questions and voice concerns to city staff.
