Comprehensive Housing Planning Report: Enhancing Affordable Housing in Delaware

The Comprehensive Housing Planning Report aims to address the pressing need for affordable housing in Delaware through a collaborative effort between the Delaware Housing Coalition (DHC) and the Housing Policy Coalition (HPC). This report outlines current planning processes, highlights specific sub-populations, and emphasizes a community-wide approach to meet the diverse housing needs of all Delawareans. Guided by principles of affordability, sustainability, and community building, the report recommends strategies for density, growth management, and inter-jurisdictional cooperation to create a cohesive housing policy.
