A decisive vote of 9-2 saw members of city council approve a transitional housing complex for construction on Lorraine Street to house 40 people who are chronically homeless, with wraparound services to ease them into permanent community housing

A 40-unit transitional housing complex on Lorraine Street with clinical supports to help ease the chronically homeless into permanent community housing will soon become a reality.

Approximately $2.4 million of the project’s total cost has been earmarked toward HST and a contingency, “just to be extra safe,” Briscoe said. In October 2021, Kirwan and Leduc held a public meeting at Const. Joseph MacDonald Park, which overlooks the future site of the complex west of Notre Dame Avenue’s intersection with Lasalle Boulevard. Approximately 50 area residents joined them to speak against the project.

Although Kirwan said the transitional housing complex is “taking 40 units away from the people on the current waiting list,” Ward 4 Coun. Geoff McCausland countered that the complex will allow the city a more effective means of managing its housing continuum.
