History

The first housing offices were created in 1969, following the creation of the Société d’habitation du Québec in 1967. It was on August 23, 1979, that the Office municipal d’habitation de Laval obtained its letters patent and began operations. A few months later, in 1980, the Office municipal d’habitation de Laval was already making available to individuals and low-income households 676 low-rental housing units (HLM):

  • 352 housing units for families and individuals at Place Saint-Martin;
  • 324 housing units for the elderly at the Cartier residence, the Chomedey residence and the manoir des Châteaux.

In 1994, the federal government ended its social housing programs, including public low-rental housing (HLM). The real estate portfolio of Office municipal d’habitation de Laval then included 1,120 low-rental housing units. Following the withdrawal of the federal government, the government of Quebec set up, from 1996, various programs for the construction of social housing and for the promotion of social diversity: the Achat-Rénovation program, replaced by the AccèsLogis Québec program and the Logement Abordable Québec program. The government has also set up the rent supplement program (PSL).

Since 2002, the Office municipal d'habitation de Laval has taken advantage of the programs in force to build new housing.

The housing stock (hyperlink to the housing stockk page) of the Office municipal d'habitation de Laval now has almost 3,200 subsidized housing units:

Since its creation in 1979, the Office municipal d’habitation de Laval has also seen its role evolve, moving from building manager to building manager developing related services and activities to improve the living environment of its tenants.
