Explore policy options to seek additional resources to assist residents with home repair and <br />maintenance. <br />2. Explore policy options to encourage the availability and preservation of housing for all income levels, <br />including those making less than 30% AMI. <br />3. Explore alternative affordable housing options for City residents living in substandard housing such as <br />pre -HUD code mobile homes. <br />4. Explore policy options to encourage a diverse range of housing choices within residential <br />neighborhoods, including: cottages, small lot development, duplexes, and detached ADUs. <br />5. Explore policy options to support first -time homebuyers to encourage greater rates of home ownership. <br />6. Explore policy options to support both public and private sidewalk development. <br />7. Explore policy options to support neighborhood specific development standards. <br />Following discussion, Councilmembers and Commissioners arrived at consensus to include these issues <br />in the draft elements. <br />
