VICTORIA Media and local officials took a behind-the-scenes tour of the Tiny Homes Village in Victoria, which is set to receive its first 30 occupants on May 12. The project will provide transitional housing for individuals experiencing homelessness in converted shipping containers located near Royal Athletic Park. The concept for the housing project was brought forward by Aryze Developments last December and received huge community support. On Thursday’s tour, media and officials got their first look inside one of the village s 100-ft living units, furnished with a bed, side table, a small fridge and armoire with towels. The designers say the project is meant to have a community feel.
