167 Braemar Road - Supportive Housing Near-Neighbour Community Meeting Update

The following update was shared on Jan. 21 with community members who had registered for the Jan. 28 public engagement session.

Dear Braemar Road community,
We are reaching out today to share an update about the supportive housing meeting planned for Wednesday, Jan. 28 at Centre 70 to let you know we are adapting the meeting format and schedule in response to community feedback about public consultation on this project. Rather than a single large town hall meeting, Ryandale and the City will host two smaller in-person meetings at the Centre 70 and a webinar. We know there is a lot of interest in the project, and these changes increase capacity to meaningfully engage.
The near-neighbour meetings are reserved for residents within a 150-metre radius of 167 Braemar Rd. who received the information handout from Ryandale and the City in December. Up to two members from each household are invited to register. The updated form asks you to confirm your address and provides an opportunity to let us know what we can do to help you best participate during the session.
If you live outside the 150-metre radius and did not receive a near-neighbour invitation, we invite you to attend a webinar on March 4, 2026. During the webinar, operators will introduce the supportive housing program and address concerns through a moderated Q&A session. We also invite you to stay current and updated through Get Involved Kingston, where information and opportunities for input on integration of the supportive housing project will be shared.
Through the engagement process so far, we have heard that having meaningful conversations is important to people who live near to the property, and our goal is that through this adjusted engagement format we can include as many people and perspectives as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience re-registering for the meeting may cause. Please reach out to GetInvolvedKingston@cityofkingston.ca if we can assist.
Regards,
The 167 Braemar Rd. Supportive Housing Team
Ryandale & City of Kingston
