Condos

We all know that Prince Rupert is in need of housing, good quality housing at an affordable price.
Strata plans are the way of the future, however we must be diligent in our approach.
We must consider who will be living in these units and what amenities are required to enhance such a project.
Should we sacrifice park land for condos?
Who will live in these units?
There is an abundance of land within  the town core in my view to accommodate such a project.
The question is, who owns the land and can the City acquire the land at a fair market price for development, or should it be a private corporate based development?
What is more cost effective and best for the community as a whole.
As our population ages, we need more affordable seniors housing, but more importantly it must be within easy access to amenities.
I URGE ALL CONCERNED CITIZENS TO ATTEND THE PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING TO BE HELD AT THE LESTER CENTRE ON OCTOBER 22,2013 AT 7:00PM.
