Body
SUMMARY:
On August 21, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution 25-11 which appointed the Neighborhood and Affordable Housing Advisory Board (NAHAB) and four additional members as the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC). This action was necessary to comply with Florida Statute 420.9076. The AHAC reviewed the city’s policies, procedures, and land development regulations and provided recommendations in advance of city staff’s preparation of the Local Housing Assistant Plan. The AHAC’s objective was to recommend specific actions or initiatives to encourage or facilitate affordable housing. The AHAC’s recommendations were presented to the Clearwater City Council December 4, 2025.
The AHAC has completed its work for FY 2025-2026 and therefore, the Council may sunset the committee.
Per Florida Statutes, the AHAC must be appointed every year to review the Local Housing Incentives Strategies.
