HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE HOUSING SUMMIT  
  
This last Monday, the annual Southern Oregon Coast Housing Summit was held where over 100 individuals – elected officials, state agency staff members, city leaders, property developers, and community services providers – met to discuss housing opportunities and strategies on the South Coast.   
  
The day opened with a short video of the various projects underway and programs available, all highlighting efforts underway on the South Coast to create pathways to housing and to increase housing stock. During the first session, Bryan Guiney (US Department of Housing & Urban Development) opened the presentations to share a national perspective on homelessness, followed by Tanisha Rosas (Oregon Housing & Community Services) who shared information on affordable housing development resources, and the morning session was closed out by Edward Tabor (Business Oregon) who offered details on various housing infrastructure opportunities available. There were discussions on energy solutions presented by Energy Trust of Oregon and Oregon Department of Energy along with information around capacity-building resources available through CCD Business Development Corporation and NeighborWorks Umpqua.    
  
The day closed out with presentations on the housing continuum efforts underway on the South Coast, producing pathways from homelessness, to shelter, and then into supportive housing, and the final presentations of the day addressed workforce opportunities the South Coast poised to ensure local communities are ready with a skilled workforce to building-out the much-needed housing units. Closing remarks were made by Senator Dick Anderson.  
  
Much is underway in Coos Bay to address the housing crisis, including previous revisions to Coos Bay Municipal Code focused on increasing housing production, as well as recent adoption of the Multi-Unit Property Tax Exemption (MUPTE). There are several larger housing projects in the works with opportunities for a few others, alongside the continued in-fill of single-family homes. Ultimately, we are hopeful these efforts bring us closer to meeting the City’s needed housing supply, as identified in the City’s 2020 Housing Needs Analysis.   
  
For more information on the MUPTE program, contact the City Manager’s office at 541-269-8912 or by email to: administration@coosbayor.gov.
