Saanich votes to allow secondary suites in rural areas - Saanich mayor says 'begrudging' decision made to prevent additional suites from being forced on them

Coun. Colin Plant, who supported the legalization of rural secondary suites, said it's a much-needed step toward housing affordability — something residents have been asking for for years. He says he believes the province felt Saanich could be doing more to provide housing across the city and had a different view than the municipality on what that should look like.
