In October 2005, the Governor's Task Force on Workforce Housing was established (Executive Order 01.01.2005.40). The Task Force is to undertake a workforce housing study which encompasses: a review of the findings and recommendations of the Governor's Commission on Housing Policy; and a comprehensive definition of workforce housing. The Task Force also will: estimate the current and projected supply and demand of workforce housing units, including the geographic distribution of units; evaluate market-based best practices for workforce housing in Maryland and other states; consider matters of planning and land-use policies of local governments; and recommend options that address the need for workforce housing and how to assist local jurisdictions in ensuring its availability.
