About the Jessica Place Project

Under development

There is a considerable need for affordable homes in Surrey and across Metro Vancouver, and we believe Entre Nous Femmes Housing Society can make a meaningful contribution through the redevelopment of Jessica Place. The redevelopment project proposes replacing the existing 40 townhomes with over 600 new affordable rental homes for families and community members in Surrey.

Project Timeline

On June 19th, 2025, Entre Nous Femmes Housing Society, with support from M’akola Development Services and architects from SvN, submitted a General Development Permit (GDP) and Rezoning application to the City of Surrey. This is an important step in the permitting process that outlines the overall vision for the future of the Jessica Place site.

The expected construction start is scheduled for summer 2027, with occupancy anticipated for summer 2030. Please note that this timeline is subject to change and depends on the approval of the City of Surrey. Please visit the City of Surrey’s applications inquiry page to see details of the process. The Jessica Place Project application number is 25-0226-00.

We will share more information about the project and engage residents as we go through the process.

Resident Relocation

As part of the redevelopment, existing residents will need to relocate temporarily, as the construction of the new development will require the demolition of all existing buildings. We anticipate the relocation process will occur gradually over the next two years. All residents must be informed of these plans early, allowing plenty of time for our relocation team to understand their needs and secure alternative housing. 

Entre Nous Femmes Housing Society is committed to supporting Jessica Place residents in finding alternative affordable housing and keeping residents informed throughout the redevelopment and relocation process. Our dedicated Resident Relocation Team will help families find alternative housing and connect residents with other resources as needed. Moving and financial compensation will be provided as part of the relocation process. Residents will also have the option to return to the new buildings once the redevelopment is complete. Jessica Place residents will be prioritized for any available vacancies within Entre Nous Femmes Housing Society buildings. 

We encourage Jessica Place residents to meet with the Resident Relocation Team if they have questions or wish to discuss their relocation options.

Residents of Jessica Place can contact the Resident Relocation Team at relocation@enfhs.ca or by calling (604) 451-4412, extension 9.
