I would work hard toward this COMMUNITY plan!!! As a carpenter I know there are sustainable ways to house our neighbors. I abhor the thought of development as I was a victim of development in King County

It only makes sense for a community to draw from within, than to pay for outside development that doesn't care about our community except for profit.

It is essential to have long-term affordable housing. Only a non-profit enterprise can ensure AH in perpetuity.

Community needs a planning target for affordable housing. % of total population? % of total dwellings? Something measurable to plan toward in the context of what the community is willing to accommodate, not what the "demand" is. That demand will always be excessive - especially if people come from off island just because affordable housing exists here. At that point, it is a regional/national/global issue. What we need to do is have an agreement on how much such housing we are willing to offer and how. A community non profit is a good option for supplying what is actually needed.

A community based solution is far better than letting off-island developers rape and pillage.

Hi Janet- contact [email protected]. Thanks!
we need permanent affordable housing on vashon island.
Is there an established board of individuals working on this? If so, I would like to participate. Who is the contact person on this proposal?
