Commissioners discuss workforce housing approaches and limited developer interest in Ball Town

Commissioners asked whether the county intends workforce housing to mean AMI‑restricted affordable units or a broader workforce housing approach. Staff said the county has used both methods: deed‑restriction light approaches that restrict occupancy to workers and AMI‑based units. "Workforce is just a more inclusive restriction light," a staff member said, describing the county's attempt to balance housing availability without capping wages.
