The Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Community Revitalization, U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development (USDA RD), and Housing and Urban Development (HUD) are hosting a webinar to address housing in gateway communities.
Gateway communities lie outside or adjacent to major tourist attractions such as national parks, wilderness areas, or nature resorts. Many of these communities experience multiple housing challenges, including – a lack of affordable housing, available financing, and rapid population growth. The webinar will highlight federal resources and private sector strategies that help communities leverage their outdoor recreation and tourism venues to address housing solutions and improve economic resilience.
Topics covered:
- Overview of USDA RD’s funding opportunities and HUD’s federal programs to support housing projects
- King City, California will provide unique strategies that meet housing demands in the Central Coast wine region near Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park
- Jackson Land Trust will outline the Public/Private Partnership with U.S. Forest Service, National Park Service in Wyoming.
This webinar will be recorded, and all registrants will be provided a link.
