Affordable Housing Project Coming to Sunshine Coast

The vision of an affordable housing project on the Sunshine Coast is getting clearer.

The development proposed for Ontario Avenue is led by the Inclusion Powell River Society.

Society CEO Lilla Tipton said if all goes well, residents will have an affordable housing option by 2022.

“They should be able to start building by next spring so it will be about two years before it’s available to people, but it’s really needed,” said Tipton.

It features 42 units for people with low incomes, including single-parent families and people with disabilities.

The project has passed first and second reading for rezoning.

The City of Powell River will look at it again at a public hearing on August 15.
