Housing-Needs Report Due by April 2022

The Provincial government has required B.C. municipalities to prepare a housing-needs report for which they need to collect data, analyze trends and present reports that describe current and anticipated housing needs in their communities.
They will include:

• Key areas of local need, including affordable, rental, special-needs, seniors and family housing, and shelters and housing for people at risk of homelessness.
• The number of housing units required to meet current and anticipated housing needs for at least the next five years, by housing type (with housing type defined by number of bedrooms).

VIEW ROYAL is the first municipality to put out calls for proposals.
