From the meeting
At the October 14, 2026 planning commission work session, staff and commissioners discussed the comprehensive plan update. The draft was expected in January or February 2027, the project was about two-thirds complete, and a regional housing needs assessment was expected by October 2027. The discussion also pointed to a future housing commission, an action plan, and follow-on work such as alternative ownership models and a revolving loan fund.
This was a planning lead rather than a procurement, but the source tied several future policy and study actions to the update.
