Thirty new affordable homes are on the way for families, seniors and women and children leaving violence in Invermere, with construction underway on a new townhouse project.
The project is a partnership between the Province, Columbia Basin Trust, the District of Invermere and Family Dynamix Association. It will provide 15 homes for low-income families and seniors and 15 homes, with access to support services, for women and children leaving violence.
“We continue to hear from residents and communities that affordable housing is a priority in the Columbia Basin region. These new units significantly increase the housing options in Invermere and enhance the quality of life for residents, whether it’s a fresh start, a comfortable space for raising a family or a place to enjoy one’s later years. Thank you to all the partners involved, and especially the efforts of Family Dynamix Association, as together we help make the basin a viable place to live, work and play,” Johnny Strilaeff, president and CEO, Columbia Basin Trust.
The site is located near a number of amenities and services, including grocery stores and schools. Construction started in November 2020 and is expected to be complete in summer 2023.
