Housing and ownership models slated for deeper review at next meetings
Summary
Committee scheduled housing for future meetings; members flagged the tradeoff between specificity and flexibility in unit counts, ownership vs. rental models, and how to model ownership opportunities for small-scale landlords and affordability in the financial model.
Committee members agreed to put housing—density, unit mix, ownership and affordability—on the agenda for upcoming meetings. The chair noted housing will be a new agenda item at the next meeting and that the financial model will be used to test ownership versus rental scenarios.
A public commenter and committee members raised questions about whether the community can be confident the eventual development will match illustrative plans shown in public sessions and asked how ownership structures might allow smaller owner-occupied multifamily properties rather than only large developers. The consultants said these topics will be modeled and discussed in greater detail at future meetings.
