BACKGROUND & a note from Councillor Vaughan



Dear friends,

As you know, sustaining the diversity of housing opportunities for all in Ward 20 is an important priority for me in my role as your Councillor. I know that inclusive, affordable housing for a wide range of individuals and families is also important to you and your neighbours. In order to focus my advocacy efforts on this matter, I have once again partnered with a group of 4th Year Urban and Regional Planning students from Ryerson University to identify opportunities to improve the affordability of housing within Ward 20.

The study will include an inventory of the current housing stock in the ward, policy tools and program models to promote affordable housing and to prepare a demographic analysis of each neighbourhood in the ward.

Many of you have participated in our recent discussions on the subject of affordable housing within your community and your input has been extremely valuable to our team.

I hope you will join us for the students final presentation on their findings.

Councillor Adam Vaughan
