Description
Housing has become one of Marquette County's biggest economic development priorities: like communities throughout the country, we're facing shortages of housing - at all price points - that are impacting our ability to recruit and retain residents and a workforce. Meeting our housing needs will require long-term, coordinated action from all parts of the community.
The Marquette County Housing Solutions Summit will be held virtually on Wednesday, December 8 and Thursday, December 9 to discuss long-term housing solutions underway in Marquette County. Speakers from Marquette County and throughout Michigan will share information and updates on:
Marquette County's specific housing needs, and planning for the future
- New and proposed state programs, legislation, and funding for housing
- Using Land Bank Authority tools for housing solutions
- Local government roles in housing solutions, and current local and regional initiatives
- Innovative housing case studies
