Town of West Hartford Housing Assessment Survey

The Town of West Hartford is conducting a community survey to help inform and guide the preparation of an Affordable Housing Plan.  This effort seeks to further many of the goals and strategies outlined in the Plan of Conservation and Development, including encouraging a diversity of housing types and costs to provide access and availability of housing options to current and future residents and will help meet the requirements of the Connecticut General Statutes § 8-30j. 
 
This survey will help gather important information on demographics, community housing needs and preferences to guide future opportunities for housing choice and diversity. 
 
The survey should only take five minutes to complete and will be open through April 30th.
