The goal and objectives of the policy are to ensure that the homes offer affordable, safe, comfortable and accessible living for our Nation’s Elders. This document outlines the policies and procedures that will govern the K’ómoks Elderplex, including the eligibility criteria, the application process, the tenancy agreements, and clearly define the roles and responsibilities of the Council, Housing Department, and the Tenants who reside in the K’ómoks Elderplex. This policy is designed to balance and protect the interests of the Elder Tenants who live in the homes, future generations of Elder Tenants, and the K’όmoks First Nation who owns the complex.
Residents of the Elderplex will be asked to follow these rules, which help ensure all tenants can share equitably in a comfortable, safe, and courteous community.
