Area needs more services, says Native Counselling Services of Alberta
An old motel in Edmonton’s Beverly neighbourhood, once known as a problem property, could become transitional housing on 118th Avenue — if it can overcome the pushback.
Native Counselling Services of Alberta (NCSA) received a permit to convert the former Beverly Motel into a transitional housing project with 17 units. Now, it faces an appeal from the Beverly Business Association and must go to Edmonton’s Subdivision and Development Appeal Board later this month.
In a letter to the SDAB, the business association said the project will make the street less safe, less walkable and less attractive to the public and investors.
