Places for People 3rd Annual Housing Summit
The statistics are staggering. At 82 per cent, Ontario has the highest proportion of renters
paying more than 30 per cent of their income on housing. In Haliburton County, affordable
housing remains a crippling obstacle to residents, with no easy answers. That’s what the 3 rd
Annual Places for People’s Housing Summit, taking place October 24 in Minden aims to address
through collaboration and problem-solving.
The summit provides opportunities for a diverse group of people, businesses and organizations
to come together to network, brainstorm and hopefully move the needle on providing more
affordable housing across the county. Fay Martin, Co-Chair of Places for People, admits while
there have been some successes, far more is needed to improve the inventory of affordable
housing here in Haliburton County.
