Burlington Housing Strategy

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

Burlington’s Housing Strategy was approved by Council in June 2022.

This strategy creates a road map and acts as a guiding document for housing needs in the City of Burlington. It will help the City to work towards meeting the housing needs of the community and move us closer to reaching our Vision for housing in Burlington.

The Housing Strategy identifies 12 recommended actions that the City and other strategic decision-makers can take to increase housing options across the City. It provides a list of priority actions, quick wins and an implementation plan to put the Housing Strategy into action.
