Take our surveys
We are gathering input to shape the 2025 to 2029 Consolidated Plan, which will guide the County's efforts in affordable housing and community development. We are seeking feedback from both residents and stakeholders. Both surveys are crucial to creating a comprehensive plan that addresses the needs of the County's residents.
The Community Needs Survey, available in both English and Spanish, invites residents to share their thoughts on the most pressing community development and housing needs.
The Stakeholder Survey is for individuals and organizations that work with and support low- and moderate-income communities.
