A very positive week for our advocacy group ...
On Monday, Central Saanich Councillor Alicia Holman introduced a motion for staff to start working on research and a report regarding the possibility of introducing tiny homes to the community. The motion will be discussed at the July 30 meeting and if it passes, is an important first step for that municipality. We have also been invited to work with staff on the Infill and Densification Review for Central Saanich.
On Wednesday, we met with Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps and the Director of Sustainable Planning and Community Development. It was an awesome meeting and they were both very much in favour of finding ways to make tiny homes an option in Victoria. We will be giving a talk at September's Lunchtime Lecture Series on "Cities in the 21st Century". I, of course, will not be speaking but getting the presentation together will be a group project. And we were very excited to find out that - if any of the dates we want are available - we can use Centennial Square for our Tiny House Showcase (tiny houses and booths outside and workshops in City Hall).
