Whaddaya know - the #HamOnt trolls were wrong again😂 “important distinctions” ...trustees mandate is to act in the best interest of the school board, and city councillors...whose members are elected to represent the interests of their constituents... thespec.com/news/hamilton-…
Honest question. Since you went there, as a parent, which of the 2 local public schools would you choose? Also, if it helps, they both have Before/After school programs. Lake Ave is $25/day for am&pm, Collegiate is $30.65/day.

I just read a CHH Development Design Strategy Report that stated RGI rents are *higher* than CHH's affordable market rents (125% AMR/MMR) ! Am I the only one who thought the complete opposite ??
CHH or @cityofhamilton Housing Secretariat should ne seriously looking at buying imo. @karl_andrus @NrinderWard3 @CameronKroetsch @ward1wilson @tammyhwang @alexwilson96

Thank you for this @CameronKroetsch was it a staff presentation to Council, or the public? Asking because those property boundaries do not align with Staff Report & Recommendation Gic voted on nor interactive zoning map on citys website.

Ive been very curious about this one too. Why didnt it come before Council to request the funds for CHH staffing (shortage) supposedly needed to provide 131 *deeply* affordable homes? @and

You could likely contact staff or councillor (lol) to find out more about whether this includes legalizing existing or new.
@SaundersWard10 Wow, very interesting, thanks for the analysis, your assessment based on empirical data sure paints a very different picture than what was portrayed. Appreciate the work on this!
@SaundersWard10 There is a well known cluster of towere near city hall.
@SaundersWard10 @scarletkate @menrvasofia @BCouncillor @TedMcMeekin @LauraBabcock @ward1wilson Cool. Hate to ask, but can you post the maps? At your convenience, of course.
@SaundersWard10 @scarletkate @menrvasofia @BCouncillor @TedMcMeekin @LauraBabcock @ward1wilson Bill me. 🤣 Seriously though, it would be good to provide similar data for the *alternative* that’s been touted by the W5 Councillor.
@SaundersWard10 @scarletkate @menrvasofia @BCouncillor @TedMcMeekin @LauraBabcock @ward1wilson Perfect. Thanks for the context.
@ward1wilson Ward 5 already active in helping.
@SaundersWard10 @mattjelly @gcrawfordHamOnt We also have ample parking already downtown the lot at city hall, the old board of Ed, convention centre, jackson square, a ton of private service parking.. all available. Parking downtown also isn't free.
@SaundersWard10 @gcrawfordHamOnt Well Viv, for future reference I'm fine with the city getting completely out of subsidizing parking. Was pretty vocal about all the free stuff we handed over to PJ and gang.
@SaundersWard10 @gcrawfordHamOnt Who are you directing this argument at specifically?
@SaundersWard10 @AndreaHorwath Part of the problem is scale we don't build not for profit towers in Hamilton, the second is accessibility requirements federal funding requires minium 20% ofbunits be accessible, third is the need for different housing types, 2 and 3 bedrooms for families.
@SaundersWard10 @karl_andrus @AndreaHorwath With the balcony, yes, apparently it is. I'm not sure why it costs so much to build housing, either. But I suspect a big piece of it helps to explain why the private sector prefer greenfields.
@SaundersWard10 @karl_andrus @AndreaHorwath "btw 400,000.00 is a bachelor unit w/o parking. add 1600.00 monthly condo fees" I can buy a 500 sq ft apartment in a co-op in Hamilton for $250.
Many of the Hamilton city councillors who voted down the vacant unit tax in November opposed mandatory declarations. Toronto's botched roll-out of mandatory declarations backs up their arguments. Mayor Chow calls the roll-out "not acceptable" and a "mess" #yhmcc
If you received a notice about the Vacant Homes Tax, but you lived in your home for more than 6 months of the year - it doesn't apply to you, don’t pay it. You can appeal the notice at the link below. toronto.ca/services-payme…

nothing says "city councillor supporting a not-for-profit organization" like going online to inform people that you will not attend their future events.
@photodbydarren @menrvasofia Transit was cut in this area.
I really look forward to reading about these projects.
@ErnestBorgTen @mattjelly @alexzafer You’re usually right but not this time. Initial talks on sites, ideas etc already previously started before yesterdays meeting and announcement by 3 Stoney creek clrs posted on Facebook earlier today 🥰
@NancyHamOnt @SaundersWard10 @elbielamb1 @CraigCassar So if the Housing Secretariat decided to use the parking lot for the library on Wilson St to drop 70 units of affordable housing, Ancaster would be cool with that? BTW, I'm pro housing but I can't see Ancaster welcoming mass housing on any city owned land.
