Residential Properties & Housing
The Town of Wainwright strives to provide for a variety of housing to accommodate all markets. The Town continuously develops fully serviced and attractive residential subdivisions to ensure that an adequate supply of building sites are available to developers. Lots are generally large in comparison to those commonly developed in other communities and all have lanes for rear access and garbage pick-up. As developer, planning authority and subdivision authority, the Town is able to provide for ample green space that is interconnected through the new subdivisions. Lot costs are kept to a minimum as the Town seeks only to recover the costs of development in setting the lot prices.
