Last month, the American Planning Association Arizona Chapter and the Arizona Association for Economic Development conducted a workshop on affordable housing in the state.
The presenters were:
- Ashlee Tziganuk with the Morrison Institute for Public Policy at Arizona State University,
- Jerry Stabley, former community development director for Pinal County, and
- Bob Workman of R.L. Workman Homes in Sierra Vista.
In individual presentations, the group explained the policies and problems currently impacting affordable housing in the state from both legal and development perspectives and offered insights as to what can be done to better address the problems moving forward.
