Summary

Committee members said a county‑led assessment, conducted through a CABA partnership, will provide municipality‑level data on housing unit needs and price points and produce a report specifically for Salem Lakes.

The committee flagged workforce and affordable housing as a continuing community priority and heard that a county assessment will produce municipality‑specific guidance on housing needs and price points. A participant described the study as "a partnership with CABA" that will include a report specifically for the village, showing how many units of various types are needed at different price points.

Committee members said the county study and other surveys—plus the village's zoning rewrite outreach—could supply data to guide housing‑task‑force work and future policy decisions. No funding or commitments to specific housing projects were made at the meeting; members agreed to wait for the county assessment results before proposing firm local interventions.
