City of Dryden awarded Housing-Enabling Core Servicing funding
DRYDEN, ON – January 27, 2025
In keeping with the Ontario government’s initiative to build more homes faster, the City of Dryden has been exploring innovative solutions to address the immediate housing needs of individuals and families within our community.
We thank Minister Rickford for his unwavering support of our city. The Housing-Enabling Core Services funding of $2.1 million which we are receiving gives the city a tremendous opportunity to open up additional infill lands for housing development. This funding announcement will initiate the necessary extension of infrastructure at the south end of Van Horne Avenue that will unlock a potential 30 acres of development in the urban area of our community. As Dryden is attempting to support a significant increase in mining and energy projects in the area, this funding will get us one step closer to meeting the housing market needs of our community.
