The City of Woodland is beginning work on a five-year plan to guide investments in community development, affordable housing, and homelessness assistance programs during the 2025-2029 planning period. Also underway is a fair housing study that will consider whether all Woodland residents have equal housing opportunities.
The City’s community development plan, called a “Consolidated Plan,” will assess Woodland’s current housing market, discuss population characteristics, identify community improvement priorities, and outline a plan to fund and implement them. The fair housing study, called an “Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice,” will identify barriers to equal access to housing and propose fair and affordable housing strategies to overcome those impediments. The Consolidated Plan is required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the City to receive Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
Community input is essential to help the City focus its efforts and limited resources on the programs and services that are most needed. To engage in the planning process and share ideas with the planning team, residents are encouraged to attend one of two public meetings:
In-Person Meeting
- Tuesday, April 22 at 6:00 PM
- City Council Chambers
- 300 First Street - Second Floor
Virtual Meeting via Zoom
- Tuesday, April 29 at 10:00 AM

Residents can also participate by taking an online survey, which may be accessed here: www.surveymonkey.com/r/WoodlandConPlan.
