HR Council To Receive Housing Needs Report

An analysis of housing needs, buildable land inventory, and a strategy for developing more workforce housing will be presented to the Hood River City Council Monday evening.  City Planning Commissioners will join in the meeting to receive the report from a committee that has been working on it for the past few months.  Mayor Paul Blackburn is hopeful some strategies can be implemented to help create more opportunities for workforce housing, particularly through residential zoning changes.  The study found ten percent of Hood River’s residential property base is not available for year-round occupancy.  Monday’s meeting begins at 6 p.m. in Hood River City Hall.  In The Dalles Monday evening, the City Council will receive a presentation on utility rates based on a League of Oregon Cities water, wastewater, and stormwater rate survey done in March.  That meeting begins at 5:30 p.m. in The Dalles City Hall.
