Housing GSO: HRA Greensboro Affordable Housing Plan

LETTER OF SUPPORT – GREENSBORO HOUSING COALITION

October 12. 2020

City Council City of Greensboro P.O. Box 3136 Greensboro, NC 27402

Dear Council,

On behalf of the Greensboro Housing Coalition (GHC), I am writing to express our support for adoption of the Housing Greensboro 10-year plan. The primary goals of the plan align with community priorities and the Greensboro Housing Coalition’s mission for advocating for affordable housing and long-term solutions for our most critical housing needs. Greensboro residents are in need of decent and affordable housing, and neighborhood reinvestment is key to increasing the supply of quality housing. Working towards long-term solutions includes expanding access to opportunities for homeownership and supportive housing. The Housing GSO 10-year plan creates those opportunities and addresses major challenges in Greensboro’s housing market.

GHC has been a strong supportive partner with the City on various housing efforts through the years of its existence and we support the GSO Housing 10-year plan. We look forward to working together to ensure successful implementation of its ambitious goals.

Sincerely,

Josie Williams Executive Director
