New housing officer to be 'face and voice' of Calgary's housing strategy
CBC
The City of Calgary's new chief housing officer is now on the job. 33-year-old Reid Hendry is a born and raised Calgarian who comes to the gig from the private sector. He's worked with Trico Residential and Highfield Land Management. He said his past experience should prove helpful in this newly created position, as he is a known entity within the industry. He added that his job is to work with all partners — including other governments, the private sector and non-profit groups — to get more housing built. "What we are seeing is that these things are incremental. They're going to take time and in that, I think it's going to require a lot of trust to get that done," said Hendry.
