Do you have . . .

• Questions about what “affordable housing” means or why it’s important to our community?
• Thoughts you’d like to share about your experience with renting or buying in Golden?
• Ideas for how the City might assist its workforce, young families, seniors and other residents to remain in the community?

Then please join us for a community open house on Tuesday, July 25 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the Golden Community Center, to discuss and provide input on housing policy and program options currently under consideration. And enjoy some pizza!

This will be an opportunity to review community trends related to housing attainability, refine and prioritize housing related policies for future inclusion in Golden’s Comprehensive Plan and consider some program options to help meet the housing needs of low, moderate and middle income Golden households.
