Housing Action Plan
About the Housing Action Plan Project
In early 2022, the City of Sammamish was awarded a Housing Action Plan and Implementation (HAPI) Grant from the Washington State Department of Commerce.
Working closely with A Regional Coalition for Housing (ARCH) and a consultant to meet the grant's objectives, the City developed and adopted a Housing Diversification Toolkit to expand missing middle and affordable housing opportunities, housing located near services and transportation routes, and address conflicting market demand.
The Housing Action Plan is being used to inform the 2024 periodic update to the City's Comprehensive Plan and helps the City be responsive to regional and statewide policies and requirements like the King County Countywide Planning Policies, VISION 2050, and the Washington State Growth Management Act.
