Bellingham seeks more affordable housing

Bellingham officials and residents last night established several goals that set the wheels in motion for a new housing plan for the town. MAPC aided the development of housing goals by presenting a profile of Bellingham as well as projections on its future population.

"Our major focus tonight is what people feel should be their goals for a housing plan in the next five years," said Cynthia Wall, senior regional planner for the Land Use division of the Metropolitan Area Planning Council.
