BC Housing expands supports for the vulnerable population at Grace Inn

Update on 530 Carson Avenue:

The two buildings directly behind Craig’s Table (building 1 & 2 below) will be demolished and 20 temporary housing units will be established to house the current tenants, which will be fenced and access controlled. This is anticipated to be a significant improvement for the management of the site. It is intended this will be complete by November. 

BC Housing will send out a letter to surrounding property owners making them aware of the demolition and temporary housing plans next week.

Through development of the supportive housing facility on Davie – we will work with BC Housing and the Housing Solutions Table to discuss redevelopment of the remainder of the site. Additional approvals and reviews will come to Council as that process proceeds.
