Housing for Dawson

October 4, 2009

Opening up more building lots in town.

new_housesI love driving by those two new houses being built right now. And it’s great to know that council acted on the recommendation that we put more city owned lots on the auction block that are otherwise sitting idle. This makesĀ  property available for those that wish to construct residences either to sell or rent.

There’s a real pent up demand for affordable housing here, so we’re looking at opening up a stretch along the upper part of 7th Ave. These will make beautiful view lots as well. Hopefully there will be Integrated Community Sustainability money available for the water and sewer infrastructure for that section of the street.

Of course we are working with Community Services to develop some choice country residential lots on the Dome Road along with some new industrial lots in Callison.

    Now this is progress! More lots = more homes = more people in town = larger tax base.

    Good on you and your Council for growing our town, JS!
