Title: MOTION, submitted by Councilmember Goodin, While Cincinnati continues to grapple with long-term, systemic fixes to its affordable housing shortage, it has become apparent that the location of such units remains an issue for many homeowners. A concentration of subsidized units in one neighborhood can artificially lower property values and deter market-rate and commercial development. Accordingly, WE MOVE that the Administration advise as to whether Council may limit the development of new subsidized housing units in neighborhoods which already contain 50 percent of more of such units in their existing housing stock.
