Detailed community change data\, provided by Excensus\, LLC\, was a key component of the ULI MN/RCM Opportunity Cities Program made possible with financial support from the Family Housing Fund and Metropolitan Council. The data provided insight into residential profiles and housing types\, and information regarding who is moving to and from the community. The information helped in the assessment of future development opportunity and reinvestment. The data\, along with the Opportunity City Housing Audit\, helped cities evaluate the outcomes related to specific performance of their programs and strategies. In every city\, elected leaders and staff were energized by the data and how it informed their programs and policies. They were able to understand the importance of the data as an analysis tool for revising land use policies and making choices about development proposals related to providing new housing options to assessing transportation and employment needs. \n   \nRegister online by Feb. 18: http://februarycurahf.eventbrite.com/\nOR\nBy phone: (612) 625-9040 \n \nCURA Housing Forums are free of charge and open to the public.\n \nTo sign up for CURA Housing Forum notices please visit our website at www.cura.umn.edu or email your request to curahf@umn.edu \n\n\n$0.00
