BC Housing and RainCity Housing invite the public to an information meeting to discuss the proposal to relocate the existing St. Hilda's shelter to a new location at the northeast corner of the intersection of Ebbtide Street and Trail Avenue in Sechelt. The shelter would replace the existing St.Hilda's shelter.
The proposed location would provide 40 shelter beds, with expanded support services, on District-owned land.
The information meeting is an opportunity for community members to learn about the project, review the preliminary plans and provide feedback.
BC Housing will be seeking a lease on the land and a temporary use permit for 3 years, with an opportunity to extend a further 3 years, from the District of Sechelt.
