Please know, that your participation and feedback helped to inform the draft OPA and Zoning Framework. 

In February and March 2022, the City held three meetings to gather feedback and comments on the preliminary policy directions for IZ. The first was a Community Meeting held on February 24, 2022, followed by two Roundtable Sessions for key stakeholders: developers on March 8, 2022, and housing advocates on March 10, 2022. We have compiled a summary of the feedback we received at the meeting. Please see the document here.   

In addition to the meetings, a survey was launched to gather feedback on the preliminary policy directions for IZ. The survey consists of six questions that ask about current and future housing situations, balancing priorities, incentives, and policy options. Between February 23, 2022, and April 13, 2022, 45 unique responses were received, which we have summarized here.   

Thank you for your ongoing participation in the study. 

Sincerely, 

The Inclusionary Zoning for Affordable Housing Study project team

We will be presenting the draft Inclusionary Zoning for Affordable Housing Policies. Community members can attend to ask questions and share further comments on the proposed changes.
