Summary

City staff updated the commission on the housing capacity analysis, saying it is the state-mandated successor to the housing needs analysis and is currently about one-third complete. The analysis will estimate how much housing is needed for different income groups and inform subsequent policy changes.
Staff said a housing production strategy will follow within a year of adopting the capacity analysis to identify how the city will meet those needs. Commissioners were told this and other housing-related development-code amendments will come forward as legislative items and that the commission will have opportunities for work sessions and review.
