Housing AffordabilityEvery Eugenean needs a place to live we can afford, yet almost half of us are paying more than we can afford. Our City Council recognized this through Envision Eugene by saying our community should “provide housing affordable to all income levels.” In 2017, our planning team handled land use applications that resulted in many new home sites. These included different types of homes located across the community, from mixed-use buildings near the EmX bus line to a tiny house development at Emerald Village. However, affordability is a complex problem. No single solution will solve it. Planners put together a housing affordability infographic to help show who is affected by this issue. In response to ideas that are being discussed in our community, we also gathered info on the concept of “missing middle” housing. There will be many ways to get involved in this issue in the coming months and years. To hear more about what we’re doing around housing affordability, sign up for the Envision Eugene Newsletter.Residential lots approved <br />through land use applications <br />Growth Monitoring ProgramOur community needs the best information possible to make informed decisions about how we grow in the future. That includes getting real-time information about growth trends to see how well our assumptions match up with reality. The Growth Monitoring Program was launched by our City Council as part of Eugene’s new Comprehensive Plan, adopted in 2017. The purpose of the program is to vastly improve how we gather and share data affecting many aspects of growth in Eugene. This will allow us to adjust our plans and policies as needed. A new data monitoring system will collect information from several programs and bring it together in one place. For example, detailed reports will tell us how much buildable land we have left, help us see and respond to changes in what kind of development is happening, or show us how much Eugeneans are paying for housing. Much of the groundwork is already complete. We know what data we need and how we might be able to collect it. We are currently working with our partners in the Information Services division to build this exciting new system over the next couple of years. <br />380 <br />Prairie View <br />8 Planning Annual Report 2018 October 24, 2018, Joint Work Session – Item 1
