2019-2027 Housing Element
Adopted 2019-2027 Housing Element
The 2019-2027 Housing Element assesses current and future housing needs, identifies constraints in meeting those housing needs, and establishes housing goals, policies, and actions. As recommended by the State, the HEU builds off the 2014-2019 Housing Element, reflects new statutory requirements, includes an analysis of existing housing programs and progress of those programs, and identifies new programs and adjustments to existing programs to be more effective. A complete list of housing programs is included in Chapter 5 of the Housing Element Update.

The Draft 2019-2027 Housing Element assesses current and future housing needs, identifies constraints in meeting those housing needs, and establishes housing goals, policies, and actions. As recommended by the State, the Housing Element Update builds off the 2014-2019 Housing Element, reflects new statutory requirements, includes an analysis of existing housing programs and progress of those programs, and identifies new programs and adjustments to existing programs to be more effective.
The Town encourages the community to review the draft document to learn about and become engaged in the discussions about housing in our Town. The public review and comment period for the draft Housing Element Update will be open from April 10, 2019 to May 10, 2019.
