Summary
Edmonton just completed a massive three-year overhaul of 882 affordable housing units, investing over $23 million in upgrades—from new hot water tanks and energy-efficient windows to accessible fixtures—ensuring residents pay no more than 30% of their income for rent. Mayor Andrew Knack stressed that renovating existing housing is just as vital as building new units, calling for a balanced strategy. Civida, managing many sites, praised tenant patience and now highlights improved living conditions. Plus, another $10 million upgraded over 1,000 mixed-income units across 15 locations—proving Edmonton’s commitment to both expanding and elevating affordable housing.
