Add Comment

There are many reasons to have better coordination between local and regional housing plans.  A regional assessment can establish a framework for more equitable access to housing by clarifying goals and objectives and quantifying regional needs.  This regional plan should also inform the development of local plans.

1)    Prepare regional housing production plans

2)    Prepare municipal Housing Production Plans that reflect MetroFuture growth targets

3)    Guide housing efforts through a “Regional Housing Advisory Committee”
