Item 08 March 6, 2024 Workshop <br />Suggested/Key letter and or Resolution messages <br />• Cities are implementing innovative changes at the local level with community <br />engagement to address the needs of their community. <br />• Cities have distinct, local housing needs, public infrastructure capacity, and energy <br />efficiency or other natural resources preservation goals. <br />• The bills replace existing zoning and land use authorities with an overly broad and rigid <br />framework that eliminates the ability for cities to account for local characteristics and to <br />be responsive to local conditions. <br />• To address the spectrum of housing needs, cities are asking the Legislature to support <br />the following: (1) address the full housing spectrum, (2) support local innovation, (3) <br />provide incentives instead of mandates, and (4) support community -specific solutions. <br />
