Residents of the Sperling Place Emergency Response Centre (ERC) will soon be moving into 43 units of new permanent supportive housing in the community.

Ravi Kahlon, Minister of Housing, has released the following statement in response to the City of Prince George’s decision to decamp individuals at Millennium Park:

BC Housing and local partners are acting on an independent review of the supportive housing and permanent shelter at 3030 Gordon Ave.

New affordable rental homes for people with moderate and low incomes will soon be on the way as the Province is inviting non-profits, First Nations, municipalities and other organizations to submit proposals for the Building BC: Community Housing Fund (CHF).

The Ministry of Municipal Affairs provides local governments with infrastructure funding through a variety of grant programs to help support water-related infrastructure.

People in Telkwa will be better protected against wildfires after an investment by the Province to replace a high-priority section of the village’s water system.
