The Better Homes Ottawa - Loan Program has launched and is now accepting applications.
Through the Better Homes Ottawa - Loan Program, homeowners could get a zero-interest loan of up to the lesser of $125,000 or 10 per cent of the current value of their home to cover the cost of home energy improvements.
In March 2021, Ottawa was approved for $12,169,500 of funding from the Federation of Canadian Municipalities to launch and capitalize the program. The Better Homes Ottawa - Loan Program was approved by Council on July 7. The Better Homes Ottawa - Loan Program will be delivered by EnviroCentre, an Ottawa based non-profit organization.
The Better Homes Ottawa - Loan Program will make it easier and more affordable for homeowners to pay for home energy improvements that contribute to meeting the City’s greenhouse gas emission reduction targets, create jobs in the contractor, trades, and renovation sectors and make the building stock more comfortable, healthy, and resilient to extreme weather events.
A key part of the Better Homes Ottawa - Loan Program is the new https://betterhomesottawa.ca/ which includes information to help homeowners decide which retrofits to implement based on cost benefit and greenhouse gas reduction potential. The program also includes project management support for low-income qualified homeowners and free training for contractors on net-zero practices.

27-35 Scissons Rd.
The plan below is the subdivision for 27-35 Scissons which was approved by the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) in March 2017. The proposal is for 15 single family homes on a private street (Crocodile Private), with a tree retention block along the southerly lot line. The approved plan below shows the layout of the lots with Block 16 being the tree retention block.
This plan is posted for information only. The public consultation period was back in 2015-16 and this proposal is not open to comments.
We do not have a timeline to share, however as of June 2020, work has started on the lot to clear the trees and brush on the site.
