$3 MILLION TO NORTH BATTLEFORD FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING

Released on April 19, 2007

Health Minister and MLA for the Battlefords Len Taylor today announced that North Battleford will receive an estimated $3 million for affordable housing initiatives.

This funding is part of the Premier’s $100 million plan to revitalize Saskatchewan neighbourhoods with greatest need, which was announced February 23, 2007.

“This is an excellent example of what HomeFirst, our government’s five-year housing plan, is all about,” Taylor said.  “It will help build brighter futures for the citizens of North Battleford and provide safer, more affordable housing options for individuals and families.  This commitment will bring about significant change and renewal as we work together to make our communities more stable, vibrant and safe for Saskatchewan families.”

The new funding for affordable housing announced in February is being targeted at northern communities and the inner cities of Prince Albert, Regina, Saskatoon and North Battleford.  It marks the single largest expansion of HomeFirst, the provincial government’s five-year housing strategy initiated in 2004.
