The City of Tacoma is seeking public feedback on proposed housing actions, and there are still a couple of opportunities to learn more and participate in the coming weeks. 

Learn more at www.cityoftacoma.org/homeintacoma 

 

More information from the City website:

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.

    Not allowing enough time for comment should be illegal. Who came up with the time period? For disabled people it i9s not enough. Especially given the ramifications of the choices being considered, think beyond the immediate. Think about the values of democracy and rational thinking/
