5. The Preliminary Regulating Plan must acknowledge and address the 9%

Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting · 2026-07-16 · agenda_item

This item concerns a preliminary regulating plan that must address workforce housing requirements. The plan needs to detail the types, location, and phasing of workforce housing units. Specifically, at least 4% of dwelling units must be affordable to households earning 80% to 100% of the Area Median Income, and another 4% must be affordable to households earning 100% to 120% of the Area Median Income. These units will have an affordability period of 8 years. The mix of unit sizes, tenure, distribution, and construction timing should align with market-rate units. This item is currently under review by the Planning & Zoning Commission. The project will likely involve planning and design services, followed by construction phases for both market-rate and affordable housing units, including site preparation, utility work, building construction, and final finishes. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers should engage early to understand the project's scope and potential needs as plans develop.
