Transition on Hold

Starlee Speers - Vernon 105.7 Sun FM

A plan to build 14 affordable housing units for women in Vernon has been put on hold. Annette Sharkey with the Social Planning council says the property on PV road couldn't be re-zoned for what they were hoping to build. She says they've determined that it's too small. Sharkey says they'd like to find a larger piece of land so they can build up to thirty units. She says transition housing for women has been identified as a top priority in the city.
