Haven Lurbiecki really doesn’t like it when people move into a local condo, especially if it’s in a building with more than a few floors. Her campaign consists of various attacks on condominiums, some of which we’ve written about.
As we were looking-up financial agent contact info on a publicly-available Elections BC document, something caught our eye.
As it turns out, Lurbiecki (listed as her own financial agent) happens to live in one of these condo high-rise buildings she is so against. In her own words on the City’s candidate page, Haven describes high-rise condo buildings like hers as “the wrong type of housing for our community”. Since she claims to have read the City’s housing needs report, we’re perplexed by that statement – 15% of Port Moody families live in apartments of 5 or more storeys. And we now understand that Lurbiecki is part of that 15%!
Why is it ok for her to live in a mixed-use apartment community that benefits from walkability to shops, services, and transit – when she keeps telling us these are bad and unacceptable projects, and campaigns to block the opportunity for others in Port Moody to enjoy a similar lifestyle?
