7. CITY HOUSING STRATEGY, 2007-2012 |
That Council:
1.
Adopt the City Housing Strategy, 2007-2012 (to be issued separately
and held on file with the City Clerk’s Office).
2.
Direct staff to implement the City Housing Strategy through the City
Strategic Plan and to incorporate the strategies and directions of the City
Housing Strategy into branch work plans and corporate policies and program
development.
3.
Direct staff to report back in one year on progress in implementing the
City Housing Strategy.
4. That the following be added to
Direction 3: Meeting the Need for
Supports to Housing: (pg. 64 of the CHS)
3.9 Actions:
Develop an integrated community development model to support social
housing communities involving the City’s social services, public health,
recreation and culture, housing, police, and community partners.
Context:
The City has a leadership role to play in promoting better
co-ordination across the diversity of sectors that provide housing support
services.
Internally following amalgamation the City has both the opportunity
and responsibility to be effective in supporting low-income communities,
particularly social housing communities.
The City has a number of branches who provide support activities to these
communities, and the opportunity now exists to better co-ordinate and integrate
these activities through a community development model in order to make more
effective use of the City’s resources so to achieve healthy, sustainable,
inclusive communities.
5. Add to Appendix One, under Direction
Three – Evaluating Outcomes: (pg. 75 of CHS)
M. Co-ordination of services/activities
to achieve healthy, sustainable, inclusive communities):
·
Reduction in police service calls, 9-1-1 calls,
for crisis intervention
·
Reduction in anti-social behaviour
·
Reduction in vandalism
·
Increase in participation in City recreational
programs
·
Increase in employment participation
·
Increase in the civic participation, volunteer
activities.
6. Whereas
the City’s Housing Strategy indicates:
·
Since 1996 94% of new housing in Ottawa has been
ownership housing (50% single detached homes) only 6% was built as rental
housing;
·
37% of renter households (42,000 households in
Ottawa) currently pay in excess of 30% of their income on housing, leaving
insufficient funds for food, clothing and other essentials;
·
An Ottawa household currently needs more than two
minimum wage jobs to afford the average rent for a two-bedroom apartment (2006
average 2-bedroom monthly rent $806; monthly affordable rent for 2 person on
minimum wage $712);
·
The City has received inadequate funding to build
affordable housing units directly. In
2004 the City established an annual target of building 500 affordable housing
units for 10 years (under the Action Ottawa program). By 2007 the City had obtained funding for 586 units or 30% of its
target by 2007, leaving a 70% gap;
·
Growth projections for Ottawa shows that Ottawa
will grow from 2007 to 2021 by 9,300 households, but given housing market
behaviour, 3,700 of these new households (40%) will face affordable housing
challenges;
· The City of Ottawa’s Official Plan sets a target of
25% of new homes to be affordable to the 40% income percentile. However, this target has not been met since
adopted in 2003. In 2006, only 13.9% of
ownership completions were affordable to households at the 40% income
percentile (earning $58,000). For those
at the 30% income percentile (earning $45,000) only 0.8% were affordable;
Whereas
it is clear that Ottawa’s housing system does not work for those 140,000
households earning less than $58,000, that what is needed is a requirement that
as new developments proceed, affordable housing be built as a component of the
development, in order to assure better balanced communities with better social
outcomes for working poor and their families;
Whereas
inclusionary housing policies are regulatory instruments used by provincial or
state and local governments to encourage or require that new residential
developments require a percentage of housing (usually 10-25%) that is
affordable to moderate and low income households;
Therefore be it resolved that a policy
report on inclusionary housing be developed for Committee and Council
consideration, including any necessary legislative changes.
PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
7. Be it resolved that
staff bring forward a report that secondary plans and community design plans be
required to identify at least 7% of residential units for housing that will be
affordable for people whose income is in the 25th income percentile
and below.
