North Saanich and Metchosin say they don’t have the infrastructure to support large-scale development
Two rural Island municipalities on a list of communities that might have to meet future housing targets are asking the Housing Ministry to avoid a one-size-fits-all approach as it take steps to increase the province’s housing supply.
The $12-billion Homes for People plan includes incentives to build, laws to curb speculation and financial help for renters and homeowners. It’s not connected to the regional sewage system, much of the residential area relies on wells for water, and there is “very limited” public transportation, she said.
The letter asks the ministry to consider the size of communities and their unique housing needs, the differences between rural and urban communities with respect to available infrastructure, and the impact of increased density on existing infrastructure.A district staffer said Jones was not available for an interview.
