Support Affordable Housing in Oakville – Public Meeting May 4

Support Affordable Housing in Oakville – Public Meeting May 4

A public meeting will be held on May 4, 2026, at 6:30 pm in the Council Chambers at Oakville Town Hall to consider a proposed Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment for a six-storey mixed-use development at 1493 Sixth Line.

The proposal by Post Residences Inc. is for a 100% affordable housing project featuring 190 rental units and a 3,000 sq. ft. daycare. More than housing, it is designed as a community hub with integrated supports and services for vulnerable residents.

This project responds to a critical need in Oakville, where a significant affordable housing gap exists.

Community support is encouraged. Residents can:

  • Attend the Town Council meeting on May 4
  • Register to speak before noon on May 4
  • Submit a letter of support to the Town Clerk
