A Key Hurdle Remains…

The Hamilton Alliance for Tiny Homes Update: 

The proposal to create a community of cabins for people experiencing homelessness, endorsed by this church’s Board, has taken another step forward. At the February 17th meeting, the City of Hamilton’s Emergency and Community Services Committee directed staff to assist the Hamilton Alliance for Tiny Homes “in determining potential viable sites for its HATS project, underpinned by a Housing First approach” and “to work with Corporate Finance and Administration to determine a potential and appropriate funding source should this project proceed.” The key hurdle still remains finding a location. Meanwhile, varied consultations continue, with people with lived experience, service providers, and others. 

A demonstration cabin will be erected in front of the Anglican Cathedral on James North next week.
