Summary

The purpose of this report is to request Council to consent to the sale by Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) of 22 houses, in accordance with the City’s Shareholder Direction and subject to obtaining required consents from the provincial government and Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.  The 22 houses contain 29 single family units, ten of which are subsidized with households paying rent-geared-to-income (RGI) as opposed to market rent.  To maintain service levels standards, and to accommodate similar sized families, it is recommended that TCHC reallocate ten RGI units to units within their existing portfolio or to newly created units.

 

It is recommended that the General Manager, Shelter, Support and Housing Administration be authorized to amend the TCHC Operating Agreement as necessary as a result of the sale and authority be given to enter into any other agreements and ancillary documentation deemed appropriate in connection with the sale and purchase of the houses on terms and conditions satisfactory to the General Manager and in the form satisfactory to the City Solicitor.
