As the city filed it

The City of Toronto's new seniors housing corporation will operate affordable rental and social housing for approximately 14,000 low and moderate-income senior households in 83 senior-designated buildings. These housing units are currently operated by the Seniors Housing Unit of Toronto Community Housing Corporation. While Council has approved in principle the creation of the seniors housing corporation, it has yet to be legally incorporated due to the impact of COVID-19 on City resources.

Staff will be reporting back on timing for incorporation in spring 2021. Despite the delay, two key decisions necessary to establish the corporation are recommended at this time. In anticipation of legal incorporation of the seniors housing corporation, this report recommends the Terms of Reference for the Board of Directors for the seniors housing corporation, and directs the City Clerk to initiate recruitment of the Board. Starting the Board appointments process at this time will accelerate the process to establish the seniors housing corporation, and position the Board to guide the initial development of the organization.
