NoCo Housing NOW Summit: It’s All About Supply
The cost of housing across our region continues to climb faster than incomes. Product variety is declining while entry-level price points even challenge high-earners. Housing has become a drag on the economic health of our region.
Thank you for joining us Friday, September 19 from 8:30am to noon at the Embassy Suites in Loveland to discuss:
- How water supply and its cost will define “where, what and how much” for expanding our housing supply.
- How Proposition 123 provides both capital and strong incentives for municipalities to open more doors.
- What else is working to keep our region moving forward.

About the Initiative
NoCo Housing NOW is a collaborative coalition that acts as a key advocate and influencer in Northern Colorado, dedicated to addressing the region’s housing challenges and ensuring housing options and relative affordability for its residents.

Driven by the recognition of the housing crisis and the increasing need for affordable housing options, NoCo Housing NOW was formed in response to the findings and insights of Talent 2.0. Its primary objective is to explore and evaluate a range of effective affordable housing policies to address the current housing challenges and meet the growing demand in the region.
