Barley Risotto and Kimchi: A Culinary Crossroads| SaltWire #food #cookingshorts #kimchiSUSSEX, N.B. — The town of Sussex wants to use its housing cash to keep up to the growth it's seeing now and in the next 10 to 20 years.
In the five years ending in 2022, there were 109 residential units built in Sussex and Sussex Corner, with no multi-unit apartment growth and"modest" commercial, Hatcher said, a period that included recovery from the closure of the Picadilly potash mine in 2016. Hatcher said they had received feedback dating to before the COVID-19 pandemic from the Multicultural Association of Sussex as well as by local employers, including Irving Woodlands and Mrs. Dunsters, that more housing is needed to meet the needs of future employees.
In the higher projections of 2.5 per cent annual growth, Sussex could see the population shoot up to 8,501 by 2036, with a housing gap of 696 units, and as much as 10,882 by 2046. "We appreciate the federal government for their confidence in Sussex’s housing plan and their commitment to ensuring that everyone who wants to call Sussex home can do so," he said.
"If conditions are right and private investment is where we think it is, we could see another eight of those buildings in our foreseeable future, built right here in Sussex," he said. Sussex is also in talks with Fundy Albert Housing, a non-profit aiming to build low-cost modular affordable housing based in Riverside-Albert.
