City owned or publically owned?

pfff of course not. The Region and municipalities don't dirty their hands with such things. They spend a pittance to contract out to The Working Centre and other NGOs (some for-profit). The Fine Article says: "Waterloo, Ont., is transferring a large parcel of land to Habitat for Humanity Waterloo Region and Build Now: Waterloo Region"
