Topics of discussion will include:

• Review takeaways from stakeholder interviews. 
• Continue discussion on  short term rental strategies.
• Present findings and recommendations from code review and research.
• SAT to provide initial input and recommendations.

The City of Florence is going through a process to create a Housing Implementation Plan. This project will research, recommend, and prepare code updates that ensure internal consistency, local sustainability, and conformance with State housing requirements. This work will result in a Housing Implementation Plan, which will identify multiple affordable housing strategies, programs, and funding opportunities, that, once complete, will guide future housing development programs in the City.

The success of this project will come, in large part, from public involvement. The Stakeholder Advisory Team (SAT) is made up of representatives from City departments, the local business community, education representatives, representatives from housing and social services support agencies, local health advocates, and local residential housing developers.

The SAT will review work products and provide recommendations on key project issues and decisions, provide guidance on scenarios and policy options and guide stakeholder and community engagement strategies. The group will also serve as liaisons between the project and the stakeholder's representative constituents.
