 In 2003, the City of Moose Jaw approved the implementation of two (2) new Housing Incentive Programs in hopes of encouraging economic development by stimulating new housing starts. In 2006, the New Housing Incentive Program was terminated while the Replacement Housing Incentive Program as extended for an additional three (3) year period scheduled to expire on December 31, 2009.
