Summary

Members proposed a council meeting dedicated to housing colocation that would bring developers who have implemented colocation projects and providers onto a panel to identify what works and regulatory pinch points for prospective legislative support.

Council members asked that housing — and specifically colocation of housing with child care and early learning services — get dedicated attention in 2025.

Liz said she would "love to have, like, 1 of our meetings be around housing and specifically bringing in developers who have successfully done colocation," adding that hearing directly from those developers and provider panelists could identify "what's working, where the pinch points are." Chair Miller noted a conversation with Andrea Bell, director of housing and community services, who offered agency support for the council's housing work.

Members also discussed dedicating learning sessions on the multiple funding streams that can support housing and supports for vulnerable families, and the need to consider different rural and urban models.
