Kamloops among local governments to receive provincial housing grants
KAMLOOPS — Kamloops, Williams Lake, Logan Lake and the Thompson-Nicola Regional District are among 56 local governments across B.C. set to receive grants meant to boost housing.
The provincial government said grant funding comes from the Local Government Develop Approvals Program, which aims to fast-track development approvals and speed up housing construction.
“Our focus from the start has been on helping people across B.C. find housing that fits their needs and budgets. That can look very different in different communities,” said Christine Boyle, minister of housing and municipal affairs.
“With the Local Government Development Approvals Program, local governments can improve their internal processes and development approvals, so that we can speed up the delivery of homes for people living and working in B.C.”
