The forum primarily addressed two strategic areas: natural resource protections and housing development. For natural resources, the plan focuses on compliance with Metro's Title 13 for Habitat Conservation Areas, outlining both clear and objective protection standards and a discretionary path offering flexibility and incentives, particularly when linked to affordable housing development. For housing, the plan aims to achieve an average density of 20 dwelling units per net acre, emphasizing the provision of undersupplied housing options through various zones and a credit system, alongside flexible development paths. The overall objective is to balance environmental preservation with the need for diverse and affordable housing options.
