Build Communities Strong Fund
The Build Communities Strong Fund - Community stream, formerly the Canada Community-Building Fund, provides municipalities with a stable, predictable and indexed source of long-term infrastructure funding. The program gives local communities with flexibility to make strategic investments in essential infrastructure, including roads and bridges, public transit, drinking water and wastewater systems and recreational facilities, helping to build strong, resilient and prosperous communities.
As a recipient of the Build Communities Strong Fund, the City of Oshawa completes a Housing Needs Assessment to make informed decisions at the local and community levels.
