Survey feedback will help shape Nanaimo tenant relocation assistance project 

The City of Nanaimo is asking residents for feedback on compensation for tenants displaced by apartment redevelopment. 

The city is developing a rental tenant relocation assistance project that would establish a policy or regulatory framework to support renters facing eviction. 

“Tenants in older rental buildings often face major challenges during redevelopment. This engagement will help us identify those challenges and create policies that offer support to affected renters,” said Jeremy Holm, director of planning and development for the city. 

A survey will be available on the city’s website from Jan. 28 to Feb. 18.
