It's 2009 - - Still No Meeting Date For SEWRPC Housing Study Committee

SEWRPC 'rushed' the naming of the committee to mollify its federal recertification evaluators in the fall of 2008, but the committee has yet to schedule its first meeting, according to the SEWRPC website.

Remember that SEWRPC last completed a regional housing plan in 1975.

And has been promising since 2004 to fix this oversight.

So let's be generous and say this study get started sometime this year, wraps up in 2010 and is published in 2011.

Pretty timely for a state and region with a full-blown housing crisis unfolding right now.
