In this episode of Non-Partisan Hacks: Pulse Edition, Parksville councillors Joel Grenz and Sean Wood break down one of the most talked-about issues in local government: housing.
What's the difference between market and non-market housing? Why is non-market housing so hard (and slow) to build? Who actually pays for it? And what does the "Vienna Model" have to do with Vancouver Island's housing future? From permissive tax exemptions to project delays at BC Housing, this episode pulls back the curtain on how housing decisions actually get made—and who carries the cost.
Episode Highlights:
Market vs. non-market housing: Breaking down the jargon
Why BC Housing projects take years (not months) to build
The real cost of permissive tax exemptions—and who pays
Courtenay councillor Wendy Morin's fiery take on housing delays
Could the Vienna Model work for Vancouver Island communities?
How local councils balance taxpayer concerns with housing needs
Whether you're a taxpayer, tenant, policymaker, or just housing-curious, this episode breaks down the complexities of Vancouver Island's housing challenges in plain language.
