The report not only forecasts the regional <br />need by 20320 for newly constructed, affordable housing but it allocates each <br />community’s share of the regional need. The total need for newly constructed <br />housing in the Twin Cities is estimated to be 37,90051,000 units between 20211 <br />and 20320. <br />Each community’s share of the regional need is allocated based on a number of <br />factors. According to the Metropolitan Council, 30.6 33.2 percent of new housing <br />units in all cities should be affordable. Allocations are then adjusted by the <br />balance of low-wage jobs and workers and thejob proximity and, the composition <br />of the existing affordable housing stock and access to transit service.. Based on <br />the formula, the Metropolitan Council has allocated a need for 288 373 affordable <br />housing units to Arden Hills between now and the year 20320. <br />In order to ensure that this need can be met, Arden Hills has allocated several <br />land use classifications on the Future Land Use Map with development standards <br />that may accommodate affordable housing on TCAAP. In the remainder of <br />Arden Hills, the City expects the majority of new affordable housing units to be <br />constructed in areas designated as Medium Density Residential or High Density
