SUMMARY:Washington County Housing Summit
DESCRIPTION:Sunrise County Economic Council (SCEC) will convene regional leaders\, housing experts\, and community partners for a full day event focused on addressing the county’s most urgent housing challenges. The summit will bring together practitioners from across sectors to chart a path toward more stable\, attainable housing for residents. \nWhy Now? \nWashington County is experiencing the sharpest housing pressures in decades. Home prices have reached historic highs\, outpacing wages and pricing out residents across income levels. At the same time\, new housing construction is not keeping pace with demand\, particularly in rural communities where development costs are high and available units are limited. The summit will provide a forum for understanding these challenges and identifying actionable solutions. \nLearn Practical Strategies for Success \nPanelists will include developers\, lenders\, social service providers\, municipal leaders\, and housing organizations who will highlight practical strategies\, share successful models from across Maine\, and strengthen collaboration among the partners working to ensure every resident has a safe\, stable place to call home. \nRegistration fee: $15 \nPlease email Elaine Abbott at eabbott@sunrisecounty.org to request a complimentary ticket if the cost is a barrier for you
