Huron County seeks feedback from residential landlords

Huron County is recognizing the vital work of local housing providers and community partners who are making a difference in addressing housing challenges in the region.

The county is highlighting ongoing efforts of communities, governments, and organizations that are working together in the region to prevent and address homelessness.

The County's Coordinated Access System uses a By-Name List to identify individuals and families in need and connect them with the support necessary to secure stable housing.

In recognition of National Housing Day, the County of Huron’s Social and Property Services’ Department is launching a Landlord Engagement Survey seeking feedback from local residential rental landlords.

The County’s Housing Services division will use the insights to better understand the rental market, identify local housing needs, and improve future housing services.

“We recognize that local landlords play a critical role in providing a range of housing options for our residents,” said Barb Hall, Director of Social and Property Services.“This survey will help us engage with landlords to ensure that we have the data and information needed to create better housing solutions and support our community’s diverse needs.”

The Landlord Engagement Survey is now available online at: https://connectedcountyofhuron.ca/landlord-engagement-survey
