Project Street: Various/Multiple
Project City: Collingwood
Detail Of Services: This Request for Proposals is an invitation by the Town of Collingwood to prospective respondents to submit proposals for the provision of Affordable Housing Master Plan, as further described in the RFP Particulars (the “Deliverables”).The Town of Collingwood is inviting prospective qualified respondents with diverse knowledge and experience within the Affordable Housing field to submit proposals for the provision of an Affordable Housing Master Plan addressing the following separate but closely related items: The Town of Collingwood’s Affordable Housing Master Plan, including strategic direction, strategic actions, implementation plan, potentially including actions for other stakeholders or that require private-public partnerships; and Implementation tools including forms, templates, policies, bylaws, etc., that are “Council-ready” or “public-ready”. The Town of Collingwood’s strategic vision is for people to thrive here, Collingwood offers residents and visitors a healthy lifestyle of activities in beautiful and safe settings, including an active transportation network, an inclusive multi-generational arts community with strong civic pride, an animated waterfront, and boating facilities, and is a hub of successful entrepreneurs and businesses offering rewarding jobs. However, the very lifestyle and amenities that make Collingwood such an appealing place to live are also driving up housing prices – especially as the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated housing struggles for the Town from the influx of people wishing to relocate to the area from large urban centres. Collingwood is one of the fastest growing municipalities in Canada, providing opportunities and challenges for the provision of housing that meet the needs of the community. The lack of affordable housing makes it difficult for local employers to attract and retain workers, with some employers incurring costs to house or transport their workers. Additional economic pressure related to residential activity is also increasing the development of low-rise housing forms, which is not affordable The rising cost of construction, infrastructure servicing , municipal fees/development charges, public opposition (including “Not In My Backyard” or NIMBYism), outdated public and regulatory instruments, and the time associated with approvals, are some of the barriers identified by developers to creating housing that is affordable for the local work force. The Town of Collingwood acknowledges that housing is a fundamental and universal human right. Affordable housing is not traditionally seen as a local municipal issue; however Council and Staff believe that action can and should occur at all levels of government and, in times of crisis, municipalities need to take a leadership role. The Town is seeking an Affordable Housing Master Plan that will guide ongoing decision making through strategic direction. Time-frame for Delivery of Goods or Services, or the Duration of the Contract: Anticipated time frame to complete the project is six (6) months with the option to extend if required.
