- Arcata Housing Committee Proposal
-
Arcata's housing crisis demands innovative and robust public policy, such as creation of a citizens' advisory committee on housing. Here is an argument and description in favor of this (my) entirely new proposal. Present absence of such an essential public policy venue / forum demonstrates a lack of political insight and action by current council policy.
