New Social Housing Development Opens in Prince Albert

Released on October 24, 2014

Thirty new social housing units for families are officially open in Prince Albert as part of the Government of Saskatchewan’s portfolio renewal initiative.  The government, through Saskatchewan Housing Corporation (SHC), invested $5.6 million in the development, located at 2929 - 5A Avenue East in Prince Albert.

The project was undertaken by RNF Development Company of Prince Albert, and will be managed by the Prince Albert Housing Authority.

“I am pleased that this project is now a reality in Prince Albert,” Prince Albert Carlton MLA Darryl Hickie said on behalf of Social Services Minister and Minister Responsible for Saskatchewan Housing Corporation Donna Harpauer.  “This investment in social housing will provide 30 families with an opportunity to live in a home that is more modern, energy-efficient and affordable.  Our government is proud to work with RNF Development Company on this initiative, as well as support individuals and families in greatest housing need, which is a priority under the Saskatchewan Plan for Growth.”

Located in the East Hill neighbourhood, the development includes 30 units, 28 of which are three-bedroom units and two are two-bedroom wheelchair accessible units.  The living area of the three-bedroom units is 937 square feet (87.1 square metres) and the living area for the two-bedroom units is 805 square feet (74.8 square metres).  Each unit has a full, unfinished concrete basement.

SHC is currently selling single-family housing units in Moose Jaw and Prince Albert, with the proceeds being reinvested in new multiple-unit housing, to help meet the demand for affordable housing in Regina, Moose Jaw and Prince Albert.
