HALA Community Focus Groups

The Office of Planning & Community Development is recruiting for a large and diverse group of residents to help shape the Housing Affordability and Livability Agenda. Community focus groups will have representatives from each Urban Village and will talk through some of these big HALA proposals. This is a year-long commitment and one important way to give input to the City on what you think of these proposals. People who live in multi-family zones or the Urban Villages, renters and owners, are needed to share your views and experiences because this will directly affect you. Applications due Friday, February 26.
