A board member reported contact from bankers based in Washington, D.C., who said they have government funding programs for building affordable housing targeted at moderate-income professionals. "They actually are looking to build affordable housing for moderate income professionals, teachers, fire, fire people," Committee member (speaker 6) said, adding that the bankers were referred to the district and that follow-up discussions may take place but have not been made public.
Members discussed workforce housing as a potential future agenda item once immediate graduation and housing demand pressures subside. The board took no formal action; the reference was a preliminary notification and a suggestion to post information via district social channels for community awareness.
