Cedar Place is the third and final building to open on the 0.8-hectare (two-acre) site. Two other buildings, Larch Place and Birch Place, opened earlier this year to provide housing for low-to-moderate income individuals and families. Together, the three buildings provide 105 new affordable homes in the community.

The province, through BC Housing, provided approximately $11.7 million to the project through the Building BC: Supportive Housing Fund, as well as approximately $1 million in annual operating funding.

The City of Salmon Arm provided approximately $100,000 in development cost charge waivers.

“Everyone deserves stable housing, and these new supportive homes will give people experiencing homelessness in Salmon Arm the foundation they need to move forward with their lives,” said David Eby, Attorney General and Minister Responsible for Housing. “Addressing local issues of homelessness requires all of us to work together, and I’m thankful for the community partnerships that have resulted in these much-needed homes in Salmon Arm.”
