Home In Tacoma Project proposals
“Help shape the future of housing in Tacoma by commenting on the following proposed actions:
- Allow more housing types throughout Tacoma’s neighborhoods, such as duplexes, triplexes, cottage housing, and in some cases fourplexes and small multifamily housing
- Allow mid-scale multifamily housing in areas close to shopping and transit
- Update design standards so new housing complements the neighborhood
- Strengthen policies and programs to make housing more affordable
- Strengthen anti-racism and anti-displacement policies and programs
The Home In Tacoma Project package includes Comprehensive Plan updates, near-term code updates, an environmental review of potential growth impacts, and a Housing Action Plan to guide implementation over time.”
There are two new neighborhood zoning classifications, replacing the Single-Family zoning type.
- Low-scale Residential: single family detached houses; Accessory Dwelling Units; duplexes; tri-plexes. And in some cases, 4-plexes and small apartments.
- Mid-scale Residential: Townhouses, and up to 3 to 4 story apartments
