A sea of challenges awaits Mesa as it seeks to guide the development of its housing stock over the next decade.
Primarily, according to a report prepared by a prominent Valley economist, Mesa faces a growing need for low-cost housing as a hefty portion of its population struggles with low incomes.
The city is gathering data and public feedback for its next housing master plan, which will go to the City Council in early 2019. The document will serve as Mesa’s framework for evaluating proposed housing projects across all income spectrums.
