NANAIMO — The province’s pre-election spending spree continues and another Nanaimo project is benefitting.
On Wednesday, the BC government announced $4.6 million worth of funding for the Nanaimo Aboriginal Centre’s affordable housing project on Bowen Rd.
Construction of the 25-unit, $6.2 million project is underway and is expected to be completed in about 11 months.
The City of Nanaimo sold the land to the Aboriginal Centre for $1 last year.
