Origin of State Housing Goal 10
“Shelter is such a basic need that it would appear to require no justification. However,…”
“Fulfilling the other goals of the statewide land use plan [must] not unreasonably impact the supply of modestly priced housing.”
Proposal for a Statewide Housing Goal as an Element in the Statewide Land Use Goals and Guidelines
Betty Niven, State Housing Council Chair, November 26, 1974
“A need exists when there are not enough houses to supply shelter for each household for an amount that does not exceed 25% of gross household income.”

Increasing Specialization
• Subsidized Housing & First Time Homebuyers
• Financing
• Land use planning & regulation
Department of Land Conservation and Development
Land supply for needed housing types (single-family, multi-family)
Address $$ gap for housing for people not well served by market.
Consolidated Plan & Assessment of Fair Housing
Comprehensive Plan
![Page 12: ABC Workshop: Housing Lens - Neighborhood Partnerships' RE:Conference 2014](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a2aa001a28abfe788b4837/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Now: Push to Come TogetherHUD: Housing as a Platform
Fair Housing: Access to Community Assets, Racially/ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty
Innovations in Housing Design: Accessory Dwelling Units, Tiny Homes, Pods, Microtels
Innovations in Planning: Form-based Codes
Global Warming: Sustainable & resilient communities
Demographic Shifts: New populations, aging population, new household types
![Page 13: ABC Workshop: Housing Lens - Neighborhood Partnerships' RE:Conference 2014](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a2aa001a28abfe788b4837/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Why not…
• Bring together land use planning & housing finance/fair housing planning
• Plan for all households: Attainable Housing
• Address new challenges and opportunities

Cities: Why we are the way we are and how
you can work with that

Why We Do What We DoWe have to do a lot with finite resources, so we meet our minimum standards…
![Page 20: ABC Workshop: Housing Lens - Neighborhood Partnerships' RE:Conference 2014](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a2aa001a28abfe788b4837/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Why do we do what we do in land use planning?
• The state made us.
• 14 Goals for most cities• Goal 1: Citizen Involvement• Goal 2: Planning process – plans must be based on a
foundation of data• Goals 3-14:
• 3 – 7: resource lands issues• 8: Recreation• 9: Jobs• 10: Housing• 11 – 13: Infrastructure• 14: Urban areas, not sprawl
![Page 21: ABC Workshop: Housing Lens - Neighborhood Partnerships' RE:Conference 2014](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a2aa001a28abfe788b4837/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Citizen Involvement is Goal 1
![Page 22: ABC Workshop: Housing Lens - Neighborhood Partnerships' RE:Conference 2014](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a2aa001a28abfe788b4837/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Planning Process Requires DATA
• Within the goal 4 kinds of data explicitly required
• Population Forecast is primary means to collecting data• Limited details• New state system will not break
down the demographics to the city level
• Collecting Data Costs Money
![Page 23: ABC Workshop: Housing Lens - Neighborhood Partnerships' RE:Conference 2014](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a2aa001a28abfe788b4837/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Costs from the Land Use system
• Urban Growth Boundary changes• Data collection
• Mapping
• Lawyers
• Planners
• Experts
• Planning Reviews
• Appeals of anything related to Land Use
![Page 24: ABC Workshop: Housing Lens - Neighborhood Partnerships' RE:Conference 2014](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a2aa001a28abfe788b4837/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
How we pay those cost
•General Fund
• Fees that cover costs: • permit fees
• plan review fees
• building official fees
• System Development Charges
![Page 25: ABC Workshop: Housing Lens - Neighborhood Partnerships' RE:Conference 2014](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a2aa001a28abfe788b4837/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
