2020 Toronto Community Housing Corporation Infrastructure Ontario Mortgage Capex Release

Between 2013 and 2019 TCHC and IO entered into 9 separate FA's providing over $1.1 billion in loans in total to TCHC for the purposes of general debt refinancing and for capital repairs for over 100 of its properties. The City as the sole shareholder of TCHC guarantees the repayment of all of these loans. Pursuant to the FAs, a portion of the advance was required to be deposited in a separate fund administered by IO for capital repairs to the properties mortgaged under each specific FA (the "Secured Properties Capex"). In addition, TCHC was required to provide 4% of the gross income from the mortgaged properties into another reserve held by IO for the purpose of funding capital repairs on those properties (the 4% Capex Reserve, together with the Secured Properties Capex, the Capex Amounts). Accordingly, there are limitations on TCHC's ability to access Capex Amounts as they cannot be used for capital repairs on TCHC's general portfolio. Existing IO FA's need to be amended to release the funds for capital work on the overall TCHC portfolio instead of only the IO mortgaged properties. The FAs also included an equity withdrawal component which could be used for capital repairs on all of its buildings. TCHC has expended all of such equity withdrawal amounts. However, there still remains needed capital work to be completed for 2020 and beyond and a funding source is needed to satisfy the TCHC contributions under the NHCI Credit Agreement with CMHC. IO has agreed to release the Capex Amounts and to permit TCHC to apply such funds to its general portfolio state of good repair fund. The amount of the Capex Accounts held by IO in favour of TCHC currently exceeds $137 million. Once the Capex Amounts are released by IO, these funds will be placed in a TCHC segregated account for Capex expenditures on the general portfolio. The released funds will supplement the City's 10 year funding and be utilized for capital expenditures on the general portfolio. The City and TCHC intend to use these released funds for repairs consistent with the co-investment under the CMHC National Housing Co-investment credit agreement recently executed at the end of 2019. This report has been prepared in consultation with staff from the Shelter, Support and Housing Administration and TCHC.
