Infrastructure Support for Specified Municipalities Housing Supply Act

Whereas the Government of BC introduced the Housing Supply Act in 2022 and Bill 44 in 2023, setting housing targets for specified municipalities and mandating increased density for many local governments; And whereas these new requirements place undue financial pressure on those local governments due to the corresponding infrastructure upscaling requirements: Therefore be it resolved that UBCM work with the Government of BC to establish and provide long-term, stable and predictable infrastructure funding for local governments to support new housing supply.
