FOCUS - NOVEMBER 2015 7 grounds. Valerie Cranmer is the Vice Chair and Wilma Wotten serves as the liaison for council. The other members are Julie Curran Tony Janssen Meredith Jackson Anita DeVries John Lucyk Tracy McGarry and Lois McIntosh. Rounding out the committee is Recording Secretary Lindsay Burnett. We SHAC have become aware of the fact that there is not a broad enough range of affordable housing for rentals and ownership and transitional housing for all of our citizen groups for all of the stages of their lives Martha commented. The first task of the Committee was to educate them- selves on the current housing situation to determine the current housing needs. Research included sessions with representatives from Habitat for Humanity and North House and the Director of Housing for Durham Region. SHAC also had a field trip to Cannington to tour an old school house which was repurposed as residential. The Committee plans to gather more information from the participants and the community at the upcoming Housing Symposium plus do a follow-up evaluation of the event. Annually SHACs terms of reference include provid- ing recommendations to council on everything from planning and development fees to accessible housing to improving the mix of housing options for both homebuy- ers and renters. The long -term goal is the collaborative design and development of a Housing Plan for Scugog.
