2025-2028 Local Housing Assistance Plan (SHIP)
Summary
The CRA is starting the process to donate seven vacant lots in the Westside and Eastside neighborhoods to a community land trust, which would build affordable single-family or multifamily homes with prices kept low permanently. The public notice period is the legally required first step, and the actual donation agreements come back to the board later.
