Housing

Our role in housing

• Establishing regional housing policies and planning
• Reviewing the housing element of local comprehensive plans
• Funding housing development through Livable Communities Act (LCA) grant programs
• Administering the state's largest Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program through the Metro Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA)

Our Community Development Committee addresses issues related to housing policies and Metro HRA services.
