Land trust owns the land. Locals first. Town does not own the pipes.

  • Teachers, hospital staff, trades, tourism workers.
  • No large developments.
  • Not paving paradise.
  • Start with one pilot of four homes.

A pocket. A start. Housing for people who are here now.

This is not an experiment.

  1. 01 USA

    Langley, Washington. Eight cottages on land zoned for four houses (1998). Still occupied.

  2. 02 Denmark

    Private homes plus a shared yard. Ordinary housing since the 1970s.

  3. 03 New Zealand

    Earthsong, Auckland. Private homes on shared land for 20+ years.

  4. 04 Netherlands

    Three or four households already build together.

Copy the form: modest private homes, shared well and septic, local occupancy first, no new Town water plant. A 3 to 4 home pilot, not a 40-home campus.

Public safety we can actually deliver

  • OPP priorities go through the Detachment Commander and District board. Downtown and Chaffey.
  • New Fire Master Plan this term. Fire is a Town service.
  • Housing pockets for local workers belong on the same file.
  • Measure downtown hours and rural wait times.

The Town does not assign officers. I will not treat Chaffey as an afterthought.

Listen first. Vote on what Council controls. Advocate clearly for the rest.
