Last revised in 2015, the City of Asheville’s Affordable Housing Plan is due for an update. The City aims to finish a new version of the plan by June of this year — but to kickstart the process, your input is needed.

On Saturday, Jan. 27, you can share your experiences and priorities for Asheville’s housing market at the Linwood Crump Shiloh Community Center from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. or at the Asheville Mall near Barnes and Noble from 2 to 5 p.m. The community input from these open houses will be used by plan consultants Enterprise Community Partners to develop draft recommendations.

If you can’t attend, you can still have your voice heard by filling out the online survey, which opens today and will gather responses for the next three weeks.

To stay up to date with the steps of the plan, you can visit the Affordable Housing Plan section of the City’s website or sign up to get updates on the plan.
