Better Homes Hamilton Program
The Better Homes Hamilton (BHH) program is meant to provide a low barrier access to property owners with upfront capital in order to retrofit their buildings to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, improve energy efficiency, and to live more comfortably.
To achieve this, City Council approved the Pilot Project with the objective to provide up to $1 million in loans to homeowners. The pilot stage is targeting approx. 50 homes with each property able to receive a max. of $20,000.

City to create faster & bolder Climate Action Strategy
City Council has approved a recommendation to update Hamilton’s community-wide Climate Action Strategy to speed up efforts to reduce carbon emissions and better protect the community from extreme weather.
