Update – Joint Rental Licensing Task Force

Now that the Joint RAHB/HDAA Rental Licensing Task Force has presented its alternative to rental housing licensing to the City of Hamilton Planning Committee, the work the task force was asked to do has been completed and the task force has been disbanded.

The issue of rental housing licensing is not dead, however; the Planning Committee asked City staff to bring back a report for options in licensing, and the report is expected in September, 2013.

RAHB continues to support the alternative to rental housing presented to the Planning Committee and continues to have concerns about licensing and how it will affect affordable housing in Hamilton.
