Housing survey being promoted by DSAB and Town of Espanola

Are you someone who has had difficulty finding a place to rent, let alone buy?
The Town of Espanola and local DSAB is encouraging people to fill out a survey on housing.

To help increase the supply of housing in Ontario, the government is developing a Housing Supply Action Plan that will address the barriers getting in the way of new ownership and rental housing.

High prices and rents have made it hard for people to afford the housing they need while in northern and rural communities there is a lack of supply making ownership more difficult and quality rental housing hard to find.

To share your views, read the consultation report and respond online by the January 25th deadline.

The consultation report can be found at: http://www.mah.gov.on.ca/Page20903.aspx

To fill out the survey online, go to: http://www.mah.gov.on.ca/Page20905.aspx

Or Email your written feedback to [email protected] and include your name or the name of your organization, as well as attach your submission as a PDF or Word document.
