In 2018, the Board of Commissioners of San Miguel County (BOCC) adopted a goal to increase affordable housing opportunities by land banking, housing development, increasing funding, updating land use codes and supporting regional partnerships. Since then we have taken multiple actions to address our goal including purchasing land, partnering with the Town of Telluride on the Sunnyside Project and the Telluride Foundation on the Pinion Park Project. In 2022, we adopted the Community Housing Zone which created a process to increase density on land appropriate for affordable housing. In order to increase funding opportunities, we continue to actively engage in state legislation to increase affordable housing resources for local governments and have successfully secured over 6 million dollars of that funding. Recognizing that one source of funding cannot meet our existing and growing need for workforce housing, we continue to consider multiple funding opportunities and examine ways to incentivize the private development of affordable housing. We also continue to support the San Miguel Regional Housing Authority and explore opportunities with our local government partners and private developers or non-profit organizations.
