Program facts verified September 4, 2026 against toronto.ca. Programs can change at any time — confirm with the City before signing a contract.
North York homeowners are covered by the same City of Toronto BFPSP. The area includes a mix of older bungalows and newer homes — both can benefit from the subsidy depending on existing flood prevention infrastructure.
Why North York homes need this
North York's clay-heavy soil and combined sewer systems in older neighbourhoods make basement flooding a genuine risk during severe rainfall. The 2024 storm events caused significant flooding in parts of Willowdale and Don Mills.
