LCC conducts housing survey

I like volunteering for Longfellow Community Council (LCC) because it is a way to work with other Longfellow residents on issues that have been identified as important to the neighborhood. Volunteering and working together is a powerful way to keep the neighborhood vibrant and welcoming.”

In fall 2021, The Longfellow Community Council’s new Equitable Housing and Development Committee (EHDC) set out to identify the challenges that current and potential residents are facing when it comes to housing in Greater Longfellow. The results of the survey, which was launched at the Minnehaha Open Streets event last October, show a clear need for affordable rental housing, homeownership opportunities and a wider variety of housing options. EHDC is now in the process of using these results to set priorities and outlines goals for their future work.
