Bowen Island Resilient Community Housing (BIRCH) is so pleased to be partnering with the municipality to create new affordable rental housing on Lot 3 of the community lands. One of our most important next steps is to establish a project advisory group.

The purpose of this group is to engage with a cross section of community members about the project: to review progress, provide feedback and direction, and assist in policy and decision making (for example – who will qualify for the below-market units). We plan to meet every three months or so, for about two-to-three hours. 

If you would like to be a part of creating our first community housing project by volunteering to participate in our advisory group, please  send an email to: [email protected]. Tell us a bit about yourself, and your background and why you would like to be part of the team! 

We will accept applications until October 15 and hope to have our first meeting by the end of October/early November.

Thank you Bowen Island for your support!
