In the last few years the affordable housing discussion has become a permanent part of Nelson’s political landscape. It’s been discussed at City Hall, by our representatives in Victoria and even trickled its way to the federal realm.

I find budgets fascinating because they are the expression of everything we can and can’t do in our city, and the process is full of what we should have done and would love to do.
