Application & Information
Overview:
Communities nationwide are suffering from a lack of affordable housing, and housing production is not meeting the increasing demand for accessible and available units in many urban and rural areas, particularly areas of high opportunity.
Pathways to Removing Obstacles to Housing (PRO Housing) supports communities who are actively taking steps to remove barriers to affordable housing, such as:
Barriers caused by outdated zoning, land use policies, or regulations;
Inefficient procedures;
Gaps in available resources for development;
Deteriorating or inadequate infrastructure;
Lack of neighborhood amenities; or
Challenges to preserving existing housing stock such as increasing threats from natural hazards, redevelopment pressures, or expiration of affordability requirements.
For more information please see the HUD website.
The City of Norman is applying for the PRO Housing grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development.
