On the agenda

As the city filed it

On January 31, 2018, through Item EX30.2, "Implementing Tenants First - Toronto Community Housing Corporation Scattered Portfolio Plan and an Interim Selection Process for Tenant Directors on the Toronto Community Housing Corporation Board", City Council approved the transfer of ownership of Toronto Community Housing Corporation's Agency and Rooming Houses to qualified non-profit housing operators for the purpose of operating affordable housing.

In order to proceed with the transfers, some properties require dividing land into separate lots through a plan of subdivision or a land severance. A number of properties are also in needed of repair and renovations to improve the quality of the homes for existing and future residents. Given that these homes are rented as affordable rental housing (with many providing deeply affordable rental homes), it is recommended that Council approve an exemption from planning application and building permit fees to allow Toronto Community Housing Corporation to proceed with any required renovations and/or future transfer of these properties.
