Metropolitan Council of the Twin Cities’ Post

Making housing affordable for all isn’t just about funding affordable housing itself, it takes thoughtful policy changes that support development that matches the demand. We’re excited to announce we are recipients of a $4 million PRO Housing grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to improve affordable housing activities within our growing region. The grants will support city and county efforts to provide affordable housing opportunities for those with the lowest income levels. The grants will support local efforts to eliminate barriers to affordable housing production and preservation, such as updating local regulations and zoning ordinances.
