City-owned vacant land inventory for affordable housing

Summary

The state requires cities to review every three years which vacant city lots could be used for affordable housing. One lot sold for ~$165,000 (money earmarked for housing), another at 219 North Randall is getting a $239,000 affordable home with a lottery-based buyer selection, and staff will keep reviewing the ~298-lot master list with committee help.
