Candidates cite affordable housing as a continuing concern in Two Rivers
Summary
During a Two Rivers candidate event, several speakers said affordable housing is an important priority alongside economic development; no specific plans or funding amounts were proposed.
Candidates and residents at a Two Rivers event said affordable housing remains a top concern, but speakers offered few specific proposals or funding amounts.
"I know Tim said about housing, and that's important too," Gus said, acknowledging housing as an issue while emphasizing business support. Another candidate said affordable housing is essential "so that there's places to live and so that people... are attracted to this place."
Speakers framed housing as one element of a larger strategy to attract and retain residents. Remarks included concerns about supply and the need to make the city appealing for new residents and workers. Participants did not present a drafted ordinance, budget proposal or specific program at the session.
The conversation was part of a broader set of candidate remarks covering downtown business support, parks and community activities. No formal city action or vote on housing policy occurred at the event.
