Thank you to our friends at Bend Chamber for hosting yesterday’s Fair! 👍

Representatives from the City of Bend, local builders, architects, and housing advocates had a great discussion of Bend’s new pre-approved plans, how far we’ve come on ADU code, and the next steps to bolster ADU production.

Local businesses often point to high housing costs as a major challenge in recruiting and retaining employees. ADU’s are a great way to increase workforce housing supply, inter-generational housing options, and provide homeowners economic opportunity.

What are your thoughts on ADU’s❓

A very exciting day for the future of Central Oregon’s skilled workforce! Our friends at Heart of Oregon Corps have officially opened their new Central Campus. 🙌

Years of work, partnerships, and immense buy-in from the community have created a safe, welcoming place for young people to learn and grow.

The building trades offer great opportunities in our region. Sharing those and supporting students on their educational journey is a top priority for COBA.

Welcome home, Heart of Oregon Corps! We are grateful for your work and our partnership. 💛

Something worth celebrating! 🎉

COBA was glad to join Bend-La Pine Schools and Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity as they broke ground on affordable homes for school staff. The people who serve our community every day deserve the opportunity to live here, too. 🙌

Congratulations to everyone helping move this project forward. Partnerships like this are an important part of building a Central Oregon where more families can put down roots.

What if addressing the housing crisis starts with changing the math? 🤔

The cost of a home is shaped by many variables, from land prices and workforce shortages to government fees and lengthy approval processes. Each one adds to the final price.

COBA is working alongside Partners for Affordable Housing to advance practical solutions that can help make the numbers work, including streamlining approvals, reducing fees and allowing more homes to be built.

Watch the video to learn how changing these variables can help create more attainable housing in Central Oregon.
