Ideas and resources for municipalities to integrate low carbon strategies into affordable housing
The Housing Accelerator Fund (HAF) is a $4 billion federal funding program for Canadian municipalities and Indigenous governments, with applications due in the summer of 2023. The primary purpose of the HAF is to create more supply of housing at a faster pace, and it is also a wonderful opportunity to consider how our cities’ low carbon goals can be optimized in affordable housing design.
Informed by the work of TAF, the Low Carbon Cities Canada network, the Tamarack Institute, the Clean Air Partnership, and City Building TMU, these high level recommendations show how applicants in urban settings can integrate community climate action and engagement into their HAF proposals and action plans.
