Housing Opportunities Toronto - An Affordable Housing Framework for the next 10 Years (2008-2018) - November 2007

Category Community Council/Ward
Social Equity City-Wide


Update
The Housing Opportunities Toronto (HOT) Action Plan 2010-2020 (PDF) was approved by City Council on July 6, 2009 following extensive consultations.


The Housing Opportunities Toronto framework will recommend actions the governments of Toronto, Ontario and Canada, as well as the private and non-profit sectors, can take over the next 10 years to support affordable housing development.

A draft version of the framework (PDF) has been prepared.
