Committee To Hear Budget Bill for Oregon Housing and Community Services (OHCS)

The Ways and Means Subcommittee on Transportation and Economic Development will hear public testimony on the budget bill for Oregon Housing and Community Services (OHCS), SB 5511 on Thursday, March 2. OHCS is the state’s housing finance agency that administers the majority of state and federal resources for affordable housing development and homeless prevention and response. Cities are encouraged to submit testimony on the record urging the Legislature to direct OHCS to partner directly with local government, through direct funding to cities, and in support of the OMA Homelessness Taskforce Proposal.
