OPINION — Housing affordability and access continue to be among my top priorities. At a recent policy meeting, City Council advanced the Housing Trust Fund allocation plan, to advance affordable-housing goals and address the city’s ongoing housing needs.
The funding supports priorities in the city’s strategic Housing Phoenix Plan, to increase housing. This plan directs $15 million toward creating and preserving affordable housing, supporting first-time homebuyers, reducing development barriers and strengthening eviction-prevention efforts.
These investments build on our housing plan and help ensure that more families have pathways to stable housing.
