The Whatcom Housing Alliance’s steering committee submitted this letter ahead of the City Council’s public hearing on 1.23.23 @ 7pm. We need more testimony and more support for ADUs and Middle Housing ahead of this hearing. If you want to be up to date on what is happening in housing in Bellingham, opportunities to organize and testify, please become a Bellingham for Everyone ally, here!

We need our community to show up to the public hearing in person to show their support and testify about our housing crisis. If you are unable to attend that public meeting, you do have the option to submit written public testimony by clicking here, but that must be completed by 10am on Wednesday, 1.18.23.
