This report requires information on the production and affordability of new housing in each community. The definitions of affordability for owner-occupied and rental housing units are available online at http://www.metrocouncil.org/services/livcomm/AffordabilityLimits.pdf The Metropolitan Council reports on housing development in all communities, whether or not communities participate in the Livable Communities program. (Last year's reports are available online at http://stats.metc.state.mn.us/stats/pdf/AffordableHousing MS2010.pdf and http://stats.metc.state.mn.us/stats/pdf/AffordableHousingTools MS2010.pdf .) Your responses on the attached survey help the Council determine local housing performance scores (see the Guidelines for Priority Funding for Housing Performance available online at www.metrocouncil.org/housing/HousingPerformanceGuidelines.pdf). This can be critical if your community is contemplating applying for any Livable Communities Act or other Metropolitan Council funding over the next 12 months. Council Research also uses the information on housing development collected through this survey to develop our annual population and household estimates. Mandated by state statute, the Council's annual estimates are the official population numbers for state government purposes, including distribution of Local Government Aid, distribution of Local Street Aid, and calculation of tax-base sharing under the Fiscal Disparities Program. We ask that you complete the attached Annual Affordable Housing Production Survey, which can be returned with the enclosed envelope. You will also be receiving an electronic version of this survey, which can be returned via email. Please choose the method that is most convenient to you. Please respond no later than July 27`, 2012. If you are no longer responsible for this information in your community, please forward this request to the appropriate individual(s).
