Bend’s City Council recently received some recommendations to increase the supply of market-rate affordable housing. The list of ideas was generated by the Bend 2030 group over the period of several months, and contains a lot of sensible suggestions:
They won’t magically make Bend affordable to all overnight, but they put in place a variety of policies that will certainly help, and are worth supporting.
Please take a moment and write council@bendoregon.gov in support of the proposals:
- Tell them your story, why this matters to you
- If any of the ideas jump out at you in particular, tell them what you like about them
- As always, keep it polite and friendly!
