Housing Production Strategy
Salem needs more housing. To help meet that need, the City is creating a Housing Production Strategy (HPS) to outline how Salem plans to encourage housing development. The HPS is expected to include tools, policies, and actions that promote the production of a variety of housing types.
During the HPS project, the City will work with the community to:
- Confirm Salem’s housing needs
- Conduct a market study to determine the feasibility of developing housing in mixed-use areas
- Develop housing production strategies
Where Are We Now?
The City is working to confirm Salem’s housing needs, and we will soon start to talk about potential strategies to encourage housing development.
