FAQs

The plan and process will:

• Identify what types of housing is needed, with a focus on affordable housing.
• Provide an overview of the housing market, available housing, and housing needs of the Greeley community over the next five to ten years.
• Find where the best opportunities are for affordable housing.
• Engage the community to learn about their options, preferences, and priorities for the future.
• Explore the possibility of building affordable housing using the Subarea Plan.
• Make recommendations based on community input for:
  1. Quality housing that is affordable for a wide range of households.
  2. Preserving existing affordable housing.
  3. Offering new housing in older neighborhoods.
  4. Different types of housing.
  5. Thoughtful design in existing neighborhoods.
  6. Affordable housing illustrations, concepts, and design guidelines.

The City of Greeley use this information to plan and invest in housing for all Greeley residents. The City will also consider policies that will speed up the process for priority developments. Finally, the City will share the results with partners so that they can also use the information and recommendations.

A 16-member steering committee is leading this effort. Members bring expertise in housing development, real estate, advocacy, social services, education, finance, and economic development. 

We will also talk with residents, advocacy groups, the Spanish-speaking community, and local housing experts who know these issues from different perspectives.
