HR Council Approves First Reading Of Middle Housing Code

The Hood River City Council approved the first reading of its middle housing code by a 6-1 vote.  The ordinance is an effort to allow duplexes, triplexes, and cottage-style housing in more zones to try to increase supply and provide affordable workforce housing.  It also allows it in the C-1 commercial zone, and last night Councilors added clarifying language to ensure that if they became short term rentals they would have to follow the same regulations as residential zones.  The ordinance will go through a second reading in two weeks.
