MINISTER DRAUDE ANNOUNCES AFFORDABLE HOUSING PLAN

Social Services Minister June Draude announced details today (March 28th, 2011) of a five-point action plan to add at least 4,600 new housing units over the next five years and make it easier for Saskatchewan people with modest incomes to purchase new homes.

The five housing initiatives outlined in the Saskatchewan Advantage Housing Plan include:

  • Headstart On A Home

  • The Affordable Home Ownersjp Program

  • Rental Construction Incentive

  • $34 Million Investment in Rental Housing
