Description/Background:
Please review and become familiar with the attached memorandum's, data, and charts. Staff will present and explain the data and charts during the beginning of Workshop 3.
Our community is at a critical juncture regarding housing. Addressing the diverse and evolving housing needs of our residents is paramount to fostering sustainable growth, economic vitality, and overall quality of life. This is part 3 of a series of 4-5 focused workshops designed to allow the council and mayor to collaboratively identify, prioritize, and strategize solutions for our housing challenges. By engaging internal stakeholders and leveraging expert insights, we aim to develop a robust, actionable plan that will guide our efforts in creating more affordable and accessible housing options for everyone in our community.
Unlike Workshops One and Two, which were primarily educational in nature, Workshop Three is intended to foster a robust discussion amongst Sandy elected officials. The intention is to identify and priortize the housing issues that Sandy should further explore addressing.
Further action to be taken:
Additional workshops will be held on this topic throughout the remainder of 2025. Workshop Four is tentatively scheduled for October 7, 2025.
