Nunavut Housing Corp. to work with communities to decide how new housing should be used

Nunavut Housing Corp. has reached an agreement to bring 22 modular housing units to 11 communities in Nunavut.

The purchase agreement with Sakku Innovative Buildings Solutions, the development corporation of Kivalliq Inuit Association, was announced Wednesday at the legislative assembly by Lorne Kusugak, the minister responsible for the housing corporation.

Two-thirds of the units will initially be used by construction workers while they work on public housing builds, Kusugak said.

Once construction on a project is finished, the housing corporation will work with the community to decide if the modular units should be used for public housing, transitional housing or another purpose.
