Affordable housing tower approved in Kelowna to help with skyrocketing price of rental units
Description
October 7, 2021
With Kelowna's rental market being among the most expensive in the country--affordable rental units are few and far between. In fact, there's a very long list of people waiting to get into affordable housing in the Central Okanagan. But there is some relief on the way after an affordable high-rise project was unanimously approved by city council. But as Klaudia Van Emmerik reports, it won't be constructed for several years.
