Rental Housing Task Force Community Meetings

June 19, 2018 by DABC

DABC has received the following information from the Homelessness Partnering Strategy, Community Entity (Housing Policy and Planning Division – Metro Vancouver).

The Rental Housing Task Force was appointed by Premier John Horgan to advise on how to improve security and fairness for renters and rental housing providers throughout the province. The task force will report findings and make recommendations to Premier Horgan and Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing Selina Robinson in fall 2018.

The Rental Housing Task Force will host public meetings in 11 locations during the month of June. The primary audience for these sessions are rental housing providers and renters. The facilitated sessions will share perspectives from each group with the goal of identifying solutions and ideas for the task force to consider as they develop their recommendations.
