[Ord. 97-715B, § 1; Ord. 00-882C, § 2; Ord. 06-1129B, § 2]
The Regional Framework Plan calls for establishment of voluntary affordable housing production goals to be adopted by local governments and assistance from local governments on reports on progress towards increasing the supply of affordable housing. It is the intent of Title 7 to implement these policies of the Regional Framework Plan.
[Ord. 97-715B, § 1; Ord. 00-882C, § 2; Ord. 03-1005A; Ord. 06-1129B, § 2]
Each city and county within the Metro region should adopt the Affordable Housing Production Goal indicated in Table 3.07-7, as amended over time, as a guide to measure progress toward increasing housing choices and meeting the affordable housing needs of households with incomes between 0 percent and 50 percent of the regional median family income.
