The Pas Town Council Carried the Sale of The Residential Lots Purchase Agreements at Monday night’s council meeting which authorized Mayor Jim Scott and the assistant Chief Administrative Officer Jennifer Early to sign off on the 31 residential lots that were purchased over the last month.

Mayor Scott says there is a serious lack of housing in The Pas and the sale of the residential lots means that 31 new houses will be built and create more houses for sale.

The people that purchased the lots bought them for $1,000 each and they have 24 months to build homes to lock up stage on the property.
