Increasing Housing Supply and Attainability

December 5, 2019

The goal of the task force’s work was to identify challenges to housing supply, and thus attainability for individuals and families across the income spectrum. Improving the process for approval of development projects, and the citizen participation element of the process, are two critical elements addressed by this report. The sustainability of the region’s economic health relies on an adequate supply of housing that workers can afford. Without a range of housing types, sizes, and price points, the region is unlikely to continue to attract and retain the employment base necessary to support continued economic growth.i A healthy, attainable housing market has been found to bring other benefits as well, including improved government finances, increased expenditures at local businesses, and lower infrastructure and service delivery costs.
