Construction began on nine new homes in Prince George and area last month, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.
That's one less than for the same month last year, while the year-to-date total is 71, the same as the total reached by the same point last year.
There were no starts on units of multiple family housing compared to two during August 2013. The year to date total on that front remains at seven compared to 59 by the same point last year.
