The city is updating its approach to supporting an affordable housing project located at 341-347 Boulevard Saint-Joseph. By repealing a previous resolution, the city is realigning its financial participation with the provincial 'Qualified Developers' stream of the Quebec Affordable Housing Program. This change ensures the project remains eligible for provincial funding, which is essential for maintaining the affordability of the planned residential units in the Parc-de-la-Montagne–Saint-Raymond district.
The city is cancelling a previously authorized $6.7 million loan intended for a partnership with the Fonds de solidarité FTQ (a major Quebec investment fund) to support housing initiatives. This decision effectively stops the city's specific financial commitment to the 'Capital pour toit' fund. The move suggests a change in the city's strategy for financing or partnering on housing development projects.
