Call by Langley Seniors in Action and other agencies
by Dan Ferguson (Langley Advance Times)
Several Langley seniors groups are calling for mandatory subsidized rental housing.
In an advocacy letter sent to Langley City council, Langley Seniors in Action together with several other senior serving organizations, expressed concern about the impact of recent development on the supply of affordable rental units, and called for maintaining existing affordable housing on existing sites where possible, along with requiring a minimum percentage of subsidized accommodation in new buildings, where rent would be based on income.
