# November 5, 2026 Housing Advisory Board

The November 5, 2026 Housing Advisory Board meeting for miOttawa focused on reviewing the board’s composition and advancing the 2026 Housing Action Plan. The board lacked a quorum, so it could not approve the agenda or minutes or take formal action. Members discussed the need to identify priorities, completion dates, volunteers, and possible study groups for the plan, with a fuller review planned for December. A member proposed emailing the plan to board members so they could consider which goals they would help advance; the proposal was met with support, with decisions on assignments and priorities reserved for a future meeting.

The board also noted that a question about board residency requirements had been referred to a Board of Commissioners policy meeting, and discussed onboarding for new members. Members shared that a small-footprint homes development concept was a finalist for a Michigan home-builders coalition award and discussed broader interest in affordable homeownership and zoning. No contract awards, bids, spending decisions, or other procurement activity were identified.
