“Housing Study Lite” developed as a response to the need some communities have for a continuum of options to complete a housing study prior to development. 

• Smaller communities have less capacity for complex studies
• The study process often drains ongoing community energy and commitment 
• Launched in 2018 and has been used by communities and planning entities to facilitate the housing study process
• Recognized by Department of Economic Development as fulfilling completion as a recent Housing Study for RWHF & NAHTF applications.
