Accelerating housing supply

The opening session at UBCM’s housing summit, Housing BC Together, will feature Housing Minister Ravi Kahlon in discussion with local elected leaders from high-growth regions. Mayor Ken Sim (Vancouver), Mayor Brenda Locke (Surrey), Mayor Marianne Alto (Victoria), Mayor Mike Hurley (Burnaby), Mayor Malcolm Brodie (Richmond), Mayor Tom Dyas (Kelowna) and Councillor Jenna Stoner (Squamish) will join with Minister Kahlon to explore how local governments are innovating to accelerate the delivery of homes most needed in their communities and to identify the blocks that  limit the pace of development.

 

Housing BC Together will feature over 40 panellists drawn from the private, not-for-profit, and Indigenous sectors along with local government, provincial and federal representatives to identify issues that are limiting the supply of homes needed in B.C.’s communities and propose solutions. Registration has now topped 300 delegates, and the number is growing daily. Register today to save your spot for Housing BC Together.
