The Hood River Urban Renewal Agency is going to embark on a five-year action plan for the recently established Westside Urban Renewal District. Urban Renewal Administrator Will Norris says there will be five areas of emphasis, including an analysis of housing constructability at various locations in that area. There will be a public engagement plan established, with Norris noting the Westside URA is unique because it is providing the funding to proceed with existing plans. Other action plan elements include putting together a financial capacity analysis, developing a cost incentive program for “missing middle” housing, and establishing equity and performance metrics.
