The Auditor General's report, Opening Doors to Stable Housing: An Effective Waiting List and Reduced Vacancy Rates Will Help More People Access Housing, was adopted by City Council on July 16, 2019, along with 34 recommendations outlining how the Shelter, Support and Housing Administration division can improve administration of the centralized waiting list for rent-geared-to-income (RGI) housing. At this meeting, City Council requested that Shelter, Support and Housing Administration report quarterly to the Economic and Community Development Committee with updates on progress on the recommendations including the implementation of the new choice-based model for access to rent-geared-to-income housing and the managements of vacancies within Toronto Community Housing Corporation.
