Vancouver faces the thorny problem of following through on promise for three-bedroom condos
Late in September the B.C. Ministry of Housing set targets for 10 municipalities that need to up their housing game. But the targets weren’t just aimed at total units of housing: there were also requirements for homes with three bedrooms or more, suitable for families.
It will be a tricky, but necessary challenge for Vancouver, West Vancouver, District of North Vancouver, Port Moody, Victoria, Oak Bay, Saanich, Abbotsford, Delta and Kamloops. The tally is more than 60,000 units over five years, with Vancouver’s target set the highest, at 28,900 units.
