Helping build more homes, faster in Sylvan Lake

The Town of Sylvan Lake is one of six Alberta communities receiving funding from the Government of Canada to address housing challenges.

"I am thrilled that our community has been awarded this support from the Government of Canada through the Housing Accelerator Fund. This significant investment will revolutionize the landscape of housing in Sylvan Lake, not only for the duration of the program but for generations to come. With this incredible support, we can streamline application processes, offer incentives for the development of diverse housing products, and extend assistance to both non-profit and private sector developers in constructing new affordable units.

At the heart of all of this is our unwavering belief that everyone deserves a place to call home. This grant will allow us to fulfill this fundamental right for more Sylvan Lakers in the years ahead. Together, we are building a future where secure housing is within reach for all members of our community." - Mayor Megan Hanson, Town of Sylvan Lake
