The Nain Local Housing Committee had some great news for new homeowners this weekend.
Margie Fox is the Chairperson for Torngat Regional Housing Association (TRHA).
There are five new homes that will be built plus one that was given back which will only need repairs.
The following families were selected to receive the new homes: Tom Okkuatsiak, Maria Harris, Kelly Edmunds, Lillian Angnatok and Bradley Lampe, Samantha Lyall and Chesley Dicker, and Courtney Flowers and Antone Harris.
Fox says that repairs for homes will be identified once inspections are completed.
Fox added that an Annual General Meeting is scheduled for next month in Postville.
She says that three representatives from each of the Nunatsiavut communities are selected to attend the AGM, The AngajukKâk, a local housing committee member and one delegation from the community.
Invited guests also participate at the AGM from various organizations and groups such as: Newfoundland and Labrador Housing, Nunatsiavut Government, and the Member of the House of Assembly.
