Whatcom County Housing Allocation Methodology 2023-2045
This document details the methodology for the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan's housing allocation, specifically modifying the Washington State Department of Commerce's "Housing for All Planning Tool" (HAPT). It outlines the process for allocating housing unit targets by Urban Growth Area (UGA) and Rural & Resource Lands, including units by income band, Permanent Supportive Housing, and Emergency Housing, for the 2023-2045 planning period. The methodology aims to accommodate housing affordable to all economic segments of the population.

This memorandum analyzes Ferndale's population growth and land expansion across three distinct planning periods (1996-2005, 2006-2026, and 2026-2046 projected) to evaluate the city's current zoning strategy, particularly the proposed upzoning of residential single areas. It highlights a historical shift from outward expansion to inward growth, noting that the projected 2026-2046 period anticipates significant population increase with minimal annexation, a policy choice rather than a state mandate. The document recommends a balanced growth strategy that includes reevaluating annexation as a primary capacity tool, prioritizing infrastructure-ready annexation areas, and using upzoning selectively to align with historical growth patterns and distribute impacts more fairly.

It also provides an evaluation of existing housing goals and policies, with the aim of informing revisions to mitigate historical patterns of racial exclusion, increase equity, and ensure adequate housing at all income levels, particularly for BIPOC communities.
