Report should include qualitative and quantitative data that is used to recommend amenities/retail options that would be beneficial to a college student body, surrounding educational institutions and working young adults who live in Tacoma.

]]> As housing costs rise and people crave more compact, sustainable ways of living, the City needs to consider how to update our approach and policies around housing. This change will require adding tools and new ways of thinking about housing alternatives and the nature of development. Some of the housing options to look into would be land trusts, land banks, tiny house developments, mixed type and size cottage housing. Researching case studies, barriers to implementation, and making recommendations would be essential to final report.
