A Mississauga city councillor wants to see more family-sized units included in new high-rises, arguing that the city needs to ensure it’s “actually housing people instead of warehousing people” as it builds up.
Ward One Councillor Stephen Dasko moved a motion at Mississauga City Council last week, asking staff to report back on the feasibility of mandating a minimum number of two-and-three-bedroom units for all newly constructed multi-residential buildings.
He is concerned that if the city doesn’t act now much of its future housing stock could end up being controlled by investors rather than “end users,” leaving few places appropriate for families to settle down in Mississauga. However, at least one advocate is skeptical about whether boosting the supply of larger units will actually make Mississauga affordable for working class families.
In a statement provided to CP24, Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie said that she shares Dasko’s concern “that there are not enough family-sized units being built in our city” and is of an “open mind” when it comes to mandating some minimum standards.
