The B.C. and federal governments are promising to bring 37 new affordable rental homes to the seaside community of Tofino.
The rental units are part of a three-storey apartment building coming to 363 Peterson Drive, and marks the first purpose-built rental building to come to Tofino in more than 40 years, according to the MLA for Mid Island-Pacific Rim, Josie Osborne.
"As the former mayor and a long-time Tofino resident, I am incredibly proud of the partnership, collaboration and perseverance that has brought this development to fruition," she said. The province is investing roughly $4.15 million into the project, while the federal government is providing $1.85 million.
