The City of Edmonton helps create affordable and supportive housing by providing land, construction grants, and development support.
The City also builds supportive housing with funding support from the federal government’s Rapid Housing Initiative and the Government of Alberta. The completed buildings are transferred to Homeward Trust Edmonton to own, manage and contract operators.
Public engagement takes place around zoning changes, if they are required. Like any other residential project, zoning regulates the built form and permitted uses, so community approval is not necessary to determine the location or design, the type of housing or the cost to tenants.
Milestones such as land sales or funding require approval from City Council or a relevant Committee. Anyone can attend or speak at these public meetings.
Learn more about Council and Committee meetings.
The City will proactively share information about City-supported affordable and supportive housing developments with communities. There are several ways neighbours, businesses and community groups may learn about new affordable and supportive housing:
As a project progresses, the developer or operator may decide to hold additional meetings, distribute project information and find other ways to build relationships with the community. This is intended to help build relationships and ensure the long-term success of each project.
To create a city where affordable housing can be found anywhere, we need Edmontonians to welcome it everywhere.
