The two-day outreach at Classic Hotel and Suites in Corriverton on Saturday, was led by Minster of Housing Collin Croal and the Minister within the Ministryof Housing, Vanessa Benn.

Minister Croal underscored that “in three months, we will be coming back to issue your certificate of titles… once you sign, there should be no glitch after that, and the processing of the title must be done within three months”.

He reassured Region Six residents that the wait for ownership documents will be significantly reduced.

The minister also reaffirmed the government’s commitment to addressing outstanding applications across Region Six, noting that “all pending applicants will be cleared here in Region Six”.

Additionally, 241 residents were allocated house lots at Molson Creek, further expanding housing opportunities in the region.

Also, 73 Steel and Cement vouchers were made available during the two-day outreach.
