The City is exploring ways to make municipally-owned lands available at low or no cost to private and not-for-profit developers to build affordable and attainable, mixed-use, complete communities. This initiative will involve working with the Region of Waterloo and other local municipalities to develop common disposition strategies, procurement considerations, development approval processes, and legal considerations and to eliminate barriers that will help accelerate the process of bringing selected municipal lands forward for housing. Information about city owned parcels proposed for affordable and attainable housing through this initiative along with opportunities for public feedback will be identified here.
Key Actions:
Create a streamlined process for the disposition or use of city owned lands for affordable housing
Identify initial land parcel and update planning framework
Select development proposal and building partner(s)
Seek Council approval of development
Net new housing units: 50
Implementation timeline: December 1, 2023 to December 31, 2025
