We Envision...
….More outlets to provide information on senior resources related to housing issues, including housing modification information or realtors designated as Senior Real Estate Specialists, list of senior-friendly housing options, as well as civic or non-profit groups who help with home modifications. The goal is to create a “one stop shop” webpage with all these resources to make accessing housing information convenient for older adults who wish to live in Rowlett and enjoy life in this community.
We Heard...
• Housing affordability is a concern • Housing is expensive due to property taxes
• A need for housing to be within walking distance of amenities such as medical, restaurants, and shopping • Housing should be designed with these in mind: ADA compliance, accessibility needs, safety, social interaction, large first floor options • Development of new housing should consider those on a fixed income and the need for multigenerational housing
