This <br />requirement consists of three unique parts - (1) an inventory of existing housing characteristics, (2) an estimate of <br />the number of housing units required in the future, and (3) an analysis of housing needs. <br />According to the 2010 US Census, Tukwila has 19,107 residents and 7,755 housing units. Since the last <br />Comprehensive Plan update in 2004, approximately 237 new housing units have been constructed (see Table 2). <br />During the same time frame 145 net new lots were created for single - family development (see Table 1). These figures <br />illustrate how Tukwila has continued to experience small incremental development similar to findings for 1996 -2003 <br />from the last update. Figure 1 provides a picture of where in the City the development has occurred. <br />Table 1: Tukwila Platting History, 2004 -2013 <br />Source: Query - Land division recorded date Jan 1, 2004 - Dec. 10, 2013 trom City's permit system <br />12 <br />2004 <br />2005 <br />2006 <br />2007 <br />2008 <br />2009 <br />2010 <br />2011 <br />2012 <br />2013 <br />Total <br />Lots from short <br />15 <br />22 <br />17 <br />38 <br />10 <br />11 <br />2 <br />8 <br />4 <br />4 <br />131 <br />plats <br />Lots from <br />0 <br />38 <br />0 <br />0 <br />0 <br />0 <br />0 <br />0 <br />0 <br />0 <br />38 <br />subdivision <br />Lots lost to lot <br />1 <br />0 <br />2 <br />3 <br />3 <br />0 <br />0 <br />0 <br />5 <br />0 <br />-14 <br />consolidation <br />Total new lots <br />14 <br />50 <br />15 <br />35 <br />7 <br />11 <br />2 <br />8 <br />-1 <br />4 <br />145 <br />Source: Query - Land division recorded date Jan 1, 2004 - Dec. 10, 2013 trom City's permit system <br />12 <br />
