So people feel welcome and they feel included. This is just an outline of some of our accessibility priorities. We could definitely use your help in identifying any gaps or anything we have not thought of. With the Disability Council could help us with, we are currently in training and organizing.

This is really incredible given in 2015, when we had our last housing bond, it was 310 million dollars. The amount has doubled, thats really exciting. We have also talked about putting Affordable Housing in the citys capital plans. We are really planning for Affordable Housing needs as part of our overall city needs and that we are accounting for that every 45 years.
