The City of Brighton has been awarded grant funding through the State of Colorado's Department of Local Affairs to develop a housing needs assessment and incentives strategy plan. This includes the implementation of land use/zoning code and policy updates to incentivize and/or reduce barriers to affordable housing development in Brighton.

An initial step in this process is to reach out to community members and gather feedback. Gruen Gruen + Associates, a consultant working with the City in partnership with the Brighton Housing Authority, has designed a housing survey to obtain information and perspective about the current housing patterns, costs, preferences, and needs of Brighton residents.

The survey will be used to:

• Collect timely data about current housing characteristics and cost

• Find out about housing satisfaction levels

• Identify factors most important to residents’ housing needs

• Find out about affordable housing challenges

• Investigate potential support for affordable housing policies

• Estimate future housing demand in Brighton

  
  

The deadline to complete the survey is Sept. 6. All responses will remain completely anonymous.
