“This meeting will be an interactive opportunity for the community to see the results of the Affordable Housing Plan work so far, and provide feedback on the findings and draft recommendations,” said Sasha Vrtunski, Affordable Housing Officer with the City of Asheville’s Community and Economic Development Department. “It will provide a clear snapshot of how the housing crisis affects Asheville, particularly those most affected by the rising cost of living, and how we can intervene to create more equitable affordable housing.”

In May, the consultants will return to Asheville to present a final draft of the plan and recommendations to the Asheville City Council. Those meetings will be posted through the City of Asheville’s website and social media.
