Housing Production Strategy

Oregon Statewide Planning Goal 10 requires cities to plan for the housing needs of all community members. West Linn must complete a Housing Capacity Analysis (HCA) every six years as well as a Housing Production Strategy (HPS) to implement specific actions that address the identified needs. The City adopted the HCA in October 2023. The City needs adopt the HPS by June 30, 2025. 

The Housing Production Strategy outlines a range of strategies the City of West Linn plans to implement to address housing needs within the community. The HPS prioritizes current and future housing needs identified in the HCA and outlines actionable policies, actions, and implementation steps to encourage the production of needed housing. These include things like changes to how the City zones land and regulates development of housing, financial incentives, funding sources, partnerships, and other tools and policies.
