After months of being told by certain groups Growth Plan forecasts were inflated to force more housing (we're in housing crisis - we need more housing!) - Auditor General's report finds no issues w projections, methodology or process. In fact projections pretty accurate #ONpoli

@HamNeedsHousing @danigabriele_ @TheSpec It’s already out of touch of future generations because your group does not make affordable housing. I have asked for these numbers and have gotten nothing in response. How many affordable or geared to income units have your members created in the last 3 years?

Check out coalition member @danigabriele_'s opinion piece in this morning's @TheSpec. Key takeaway: unless we adopt City staff's plan, we will be putting Hamilton out of reach for future generations -- and forever changing the neighbourhoods we love #hamont #yhm #ambitiousdensity

“The No Boundary option suggests we would need 890 10-storey buildings within our existing boundary. This kind of density will mean a very different living experience in Hamilton.” Check out my opinion piece: thespec.com/opinion/contri… via @thespec

Our teams have been out delivering signs across Hamilton as City Council considers how our communities will accommodate growth over the next 30 years. We have an opportunity to build a city with housing options for all while protecting the Greenbelt! #HamOnt

Hamilton City Council is making an important decision today about the future of our city. They should listen to the experts: #HamOnt #YHMCC

As more young families & talent are moving to Hamilton & the Golden Horseshoe, we need to make room to accommodate them. #HamOnt can do this through increased intensification, transit-oriented development, zoning reform & a small urban boundary expansion. thespec.com/opinion/contri…

Expert professional planners have studied this closely. Their recommendation is sound: we need to build up but also make new areas available for different types of housing. Otherwise we will never meet demand and affordability issues will remain.
Samantha Craggs@SamCraggsCBC

Does #HamOnt already have enough land for future residents? Some say that depends on the kind of housing we want. This is the first story in a week-long series about pros & cons of the city spreading into the countryside cbc.ca/news/canada/ha…

Did you know that City Planning has already analyzed vacant land? hamilton.ca/sites/default/… ...And they still recommend the balanced approach, Ambitious Density. So yes, let's intensify downtown spaces, but also add capacity outside the boundary. 236K is a lot of new people.

This is the biggest difference between the Canadian and US housing market in my eyes. In the US, income and house prices have moved more or less in line. In Canada... oof, the chart is painful. (Another great chart set from Doyle at Macquarie)

There are a lot of local authorities to be consulted on housing/affordability/homelessness, and @TedMcMeekin would be among my first. Getting the full spectrum of stakeholders in one room would seem to be a logical move. thespec.com/opinion/contri…
