​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Brampton's Municipal Housing Pledge

On October 25, 2022, the province released Bill 23, More Homes Built Faster Act, 2022​. The Bill received Royal Assent on November 28, 2022.

Through Bill 23 and the related Housing Supply Action Plan​, the province’s goal is to achieve 1.5 million new homes by 2031, 113,000 of which have been allocated to the City of Brampton.

Brampton’s Municipal Housing Pledge​ provides details on the range of ongoing and planned City initiatives that will support strategic growth and accelerate new housing supply in Brampton.

To meet this Pledge, adequate and coordinated funding from senior levels of government is imperative to deliver essential hard and soft infrastructure. The City will continue to advocate for funding for soft infrastructure including healthcare, transit and transportation, education, and social services.

The City will also continue to advocate for large-scale intensification projects and investment in economic growth to accommodate the significant increases in housing, population and workforce.​
