Housing Capacity BLI

About this Project

3J is assisting Clatsop County with a multi-jurisdictional project to identify key housing production barriers for the cities and unincorporated rural communities of the county. 3J is preparing Buildable Lands Inventories (BLI) for the county and each of the cities in compliance with state regulations. The BLIs use local and regional zoning codes and environmental constraints to find buildable residential lands. 3J used local and national available data sets to perform the initial BLIs that were then reviewed by the individual jurisdictions. The final product includes memorandums with findings tailored to each jurisdiction. The final work product allows Clatsop County and its cities to have a shared set of information about land, building, and infrastructure needs to guide future actions and investments.
