Placer County has scheduled two housing fee study workshops in June, one in Kings Beach and another in Auburn. The workshops will offer an opportunity to comment on two recently completed studies about fees charged to developers to help fund workforce and affordable housing projects.

The Kings Beach meeting will be June 6 from 6-7:30pm at the North Tahoe Event Center. The Auburn meeting is June 7 from 6-7:30pm at the Community Development Resources Center.

The studies look into workforce housing fees for the eastern side of the county and affordable housing on the western side of the county. They were done to establish the relationship between development and the housing demand it creates. The studies will also help determine what fees should be charged to developers.

In addition to the public workshops, comments can be submitted to the county prior to mid-July, when the issue is expected to come before the Board of Supervisors. Send comments to spurvine@placer.ca.gov.
