Over 1800 homes coming to Prince George through new targets
PRINCE GEORGE — More than 17,000 homes will be built in areas with the greatest housing needs as housing targets have been established in the third set of priority communities in the province. Prince George has been included in this third set of communities.
These housing targets are net-new units to be completed within five years. The target for Prince George is 1,803 units to be built. A total of 17,599 homes are expected to be delivered by the third set of communities, representing a 58% increase in overall housing to be built when compared to historical trends.
Municipalities will be evaluated after six months, then every year, on their progress toward achieving the housing targets. The Province will monitor progress and work with the municipalities to support them in achieving their targets.
