Increase the percentage of appropriate and affordable low-income units in new developments?
A. I would increase this number offering extra units for skilled low income professionals, who would contribute their time, let say 5 hours a week for the next 2 years to do maintenance in their new development where they live. In some cases it will not work but “you will never quit smoking if you do not try”. The City of Ottawa Council recently endorsed Priority on People: Ottawa’s 2006-2008 Community Action Plan on Homelessness to create “A City Without Homelessness”.
