Non-Market Housing Strategy
Non-market housing is typically run by non-profit organizations or provincial governments and rents are often below market rate, providing a valuable, long-term option for low and moderate income households.
A Non-Market Housing Strategy will be created to support the retention of existing units and encourage the development of more non-market dwelling units.
Key aspects of this work will include a Land Bank of Town owned land to be considered for non-market housing use, and a Non-Market Grant program to provide financial support to non-market housing providers.
The creation of the Non-Market Housing Strategy is being supported by the Non-Market Housing Working Group.
Check back for updates as this work progresses.
