 The City's Housing Strategic Plan Update!

Housing Strategic Plan Update:

On February 16, City Council unanimously adopted the Housing Strategic Plan and appropriated funds to support housing-related Land Use Code updates! You can read the adoption draft of the plan here. Thank you to everyone who shared their stories, gave feedback, and participated in the development of the plan. We are looking forward to moving into implementation, starting with a community summit later this spring. Stay tuned for more details, and sign up for regular updates at https://ourcity.fcgov.com/home2health!

Larimer County Housing Study:

We’re excited to move forward, and we also know that housing challenges are not limited to Fort Collins. Many people live outside Fort Collins and commute to work in the City, and our housing system is something we need to look at from a regional perspective. We’re excited to share that our partners in Larimer County are conducting a study of housing challenges as part of the development of a county-wide housing strategy. To participate and learn more about this effort, visit https://larimer.housingimpactlab.com/. The study is open until February 28!

What’s next?

To be fully adopted, City Council needs to vote twice to adopt the ordinances. City Council will vote on both the Housing Strategic Plan and the Land Use Code appropriation on Second Reading at their hearing on March 2. Information about how to participate in the Council hearing is available here: https://www.fcgov.com/council/councilcomments#cb-39024-6678.
