WILLIAMS LAKE — The City of Williams Lake and the Cariboo Regional District (CRD) are launching a study to identify the types of homes needed most urgently in the Central Cariboo and Chilcotin.
The study will encompass the areas of Anahim Lake (Ulkatcho) to Likely/Horsefly, 150 Mile House and McLeese Lake. The project will focus on the housing needs in Williams Lake, with an impact analysis of the population flow from other communities that feed into and move between Williams Lake and outlying areas.
“As we continue to grow, we need to ensure we have a diversity of housing to meet the needs of all our residents. This study will not only help us to identify what types of housing we need, but give us the evidence to access more funding to provide it, now and into the future,” said Williams Lake Mayor Walt Cobb.
Engagement sessions are expected to begin as early as September and residents will be invited to participate via a survey in the early autumn. Public engagement opportunities will be advertised by both, the CRD and the City of Williams Lake.
