City helps with private service homes, tax incentive
North Battleford City Hall looked at a number of issues at its meeting Monday, including the use of private service homes.
Council gave its approval to a zoning amendment to allow for a permitted-use in a residential zone for homeowners who wish to use their residence as an approved private service home.
While there is no one specific new location in the city where an owner is currrently planning a private service home, the issue came up at a prior council meeting.
Private service homes are residences where the homeowner provide accommodations for an individual living with a disability, who will live with them as part of their family, in a caring environment.
