Affordable Housing Bylaw in Fernie
More affordable housing could be coming to Fernie.
Fernie Council received a report on a proposed bylaw that would require 15 percent of new housing units be set aside as affordable housing.
The development community had a number of questions about the proposed bylaw, asking who would be eligible for the housing and how the City intends to form partnerships to create more affordable housing.
Councilor Mary Giuliano says she thinks the report helps clarify things. Staff has put together a number of answers for the questions being asked.
Council will give the bylaw first and second reading at an upcoming council meeting.
