Housing availability is vital

to economic growth and security

Access to housing impacts your communities, the growth and sustainability of your town or city and the overall quality of life in your city or township. Depending on where you live your city or county officials can help you understand specific zoning laws, and you may have a city planner that can share future plans. Affordability of housing and housing stock is a crucial piece of the puzzle to making housing accessible for everyone.

Learn more by contacting your community officials and city office or Kandiyohi County zoning and permitting.
