REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS STUDY
The Eastern Sierra Council of Governments (ESCOG), in collaboration with Mono County, Inyo County, the Town of Mammoth Lakes, and the City of Bishop, is conducting a comprehensive regional housing needs study. This initiative aims to address the growing housing challenges in our communities by gathering data, engaging residents and stakeholders, and identifying strategies for implementable workforce housing solutions.
Public participation is essential to the success of this study. We invite you to provide input and stay informed as we develop solutions for housing in the Eastern Sierra. Check back for updates, public meetings, and opportunities to contribute.
Together, we can create a housing strategy that supports our communities and future generations.
