RCMP reported the incident to the In- dependent Investigation Unit of Manitoba on Monday. The incident is alleged to have taken place on Jan. 6 in Pukatawagan — a First Nations community 210 kilometres north of The Pas. “According to the notification… an RCMP officer was operating a police vehicle and intentionally struck a dog that was sitting on the roadway,” an IIU spokesperson said in a written statement. “The IIU civilian director has determined it is in the public interest for the IIU to investi- gate.” Anyone with information or video footage of the alleged incident is asked to contact IIU investigators at 1-844-667-6060. The condition of the dog is unknown as ef- forts to locate it were unsuccessful, RCMP said in a written statement. The allegation was brought to the attention of RCMP Manitoba North District officers on Jan. 7. “Senior officers immediately began investigating the serious allegations, and on Jan. 11, 2021, the RCMP advised the Manitoba Independent Investigation Unit,” the RCMP said. The accused officer has not returned to the community and has been placed on adminis- trative duties. “We are not able to provide information on years of service or any other information that could possible identify the officer,” the RCMP said. In addition to the IIU probe, the RCMP has initiated a “code of conduct investigation.” “We take this incident very seriously and support the IIU’s investigation,” the RCMP said. T HE City of Winnipeg could soon sell some properties with steep discounts in an attempt to trigger the creation of 40 new affordable hous- ing units. A new proposal suggests the city sell up to 30 lots — for an up to 50 per cent discount off their assessed value — as an incentive to create affordable homes. Another 10 lots would be sold for just $1 each to entice the creation of certified energy efficient affordable homes, such as net zero residences that produce as much energy as they consume. The city estimates the plan would cost about $50,000 to $72,500 per lot, depending on which option is pursued, which includes lost sale revenue. The plan would require full council approv- al. Coun. Cindy Gilroy, property and development committee chairwoman, said the incentives are needed to ensure Winnipeg can offer much-needed hous- ing options. “I really believe wholeheartedly in affordable housing and (this) level of government really needs to play a part in it… I think it could do a lot for inner- city neighbourhoods that need revital- ization,” said Gilroy (Daniel McIntyre). The councillor said she will attempt to alter the plan so five additional af- fordable housing lots that don’t meet the green standards will also be sold for $1, which she hopes would ensure more homes are built sooner. “If the city can just sell them for $1, then it would get these projects hope- fully going this summer.” The councillor said efficient homes may be more expensive to build but are a key priority to combat both climate change and “energy poverty.” “Sometimes, it’s hard (for families) to keep homes because of the cost of ener- gy. So if we can get things in the home that makes them more energy efficient and less costly, it’s keeping people in their homes,” she said. Through a pilot project included in the plan, the city would aim to create homes that are far-more energy effi- cient than typical builds. The city notes the structures would be added in housing improvement zones within the William Whyte, Spence, West Broadway, Centennial and North Point Douglas neighbourhoods, where the proposal aims to spark development within two years. The city hopes to sell the homes to non-profit housing providers. One potential provider said his orga- nization hopes to secure several of the lots in question, but fears the 50 per cent discount wouldn’t be enough. “(The lots) really need to be $1… be- cause we’re going into locations that generally other investors or builders don’t go into,” said Frank Zappia, a re- altor for Housing Opportunity Partner- ship. “We’re trying to really improve neighbourhoods, bring in families and provide home ownership to these areas that absolutely need it.” He said paying even half of a lot’s assessed value could lead a non-profit to lose money on an affordable home build, since construction costs are ris- ing and the eventual affordable home, by definition, must be sold at a lower price. “Without that funding, we basically can’t do it,” said Zappia. He expects investing in affordable homes would ultimately pay off for the city, however, through revitalization and increased property taxes. joyanne.pursaga@freepress.mb.ca Twitter: joyanne_pursaga City could discount lots for affordable homes JOYANNE PURSAGA It’s interesting to note most of the world only grudgingly embraced mandatory masks well after the first COVID-19 surge in the spring of 2020. In Manitoba, the Pallister government would not make masks mandatory until the end of September. We’d also have to move in parallel to restrict travel outside the province, require strict mask use in any office or work setting and any social gatherings outside those living in an immediate household. However, there is a sliver of a chance, if we did those things first, we might not need the full, broad range of economic restrictions. Some businesses or buildings just wouldn’t fit into this approach. Bars, restaurants, movie theatres and possi- bly places of worship — where wearing a mask is either counter-productive or not (sometimes) encouraged — may not be able to remain open. But the gross majority of other businesses would likely be okay. As we creep ever closer to easing some restrictions, the same principles should apply. We need to keep manda- tory masks and restrictions on social gatherings in place as long as possible, in the hope, by doing so, we could open more businesses and get the economy going again. We have the opportunity to get it right this time. But only if we pay close attention to the mistakes of the past. dan.lett@freepress.mb.ca LETT ● FROM B1 RUTH BONNEVILLE / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS Frank Zappia, with the non-profit Housing Opportunity Partnership, at a lot on Aberdeen Avenue that the city could sell at a discount. Incentives considered for much-needed housing THE province has extended the deadline to apply for grants to help preserve Manitoba’s heritage by two weeks. The deadline for the Heritage Resources Conservation Grant is now Jan. 30. The province distributes $750,000 each year to help preserve and enhance community projects. Last year, the grant program supported 81 projects, including putting cedar shingles on the Gabrielle Roy house, the francophone author of Bonheur d’occasion which was published in English as The Tin Flute; restoring the Kildonan Presbyterian Church’s 165-year- old stone walls; repointing the Granite Curling Club’s brick masonry; and repairing and replacing a few rotted logs of the log structure of the Charlebois Chapel in The Pas. “Investing in our historic sites helps to ensure future generations can appreciate and connect to our province’s rich and diverse his- tory,” said Cathy Cox, the provincial heritage minister, in a statement. “Our government is proud to partner with community organizations, local govern- ments and property owners to create unique destinations and experiences for Manitobans that honour our past and promote Manitoba’s vibrant culture and communities.” HERITAGE GRANT DEADLINE EXTENDED B_02_Jan-14-21_FP_01.indd B2 2021-01-13 9:10 PM ;
