Eight City Blocks – Affordable, Quality Housing
In 2015, about 70 new housing units have been under construction in Prince Albert, through the initiative of local agencies and our Saskatchewan Party government.
This brings the total number built since 2007, to over 300. That is the equivalent of eight square city blocks of new or renovated affordable housing units.
Last week two events were held to celebrate more families achieving home ownership through Habitat for Humanity. It was my privilege to represent the Province of Saskatchewan as a new homeowner received keys to their new home at a dedication ceremony.
Through Saskatchewan Housing Corporation (SHC), $50,000 was contributed to help support the project, located at 462 19th Street East. Additionally, contributions to this build came through Carlton High School carpentry students and instructors, many Habitat volunteers, and Western Financial Group.
