Housing Action Plan

Public Participation Goals

• Provide the city and interested parties with timely information, an understanding of the process, and multiple opportunities to participate.

Community Interviews

Timeframe: September - November

SCJ will conduct informational interviews with individual stakeholders and/or groups. The interviews will be used as mini surveys guided by specific stakeholder group’s needs, issues, opportunities, and guided by what are the greatest housing needs in Yelm. Interviews will be conducted in person. This will also help us establish community champions to lead or assist in reaching and engaging community residents at large and for future implementation of the HAP.
