UTICA, N.Y. — Oneida County is seeking a consultant to provide a housing-market inventory, assessment, and strategy report. The effort is part of Oneida County Executive Anthony J. Picente, Jr.’s initiative to address the needs and gaps in county housing options through a strategic plan.
“Housing is a critical piece in preparing for the future of this community,” Picente said in a press release. “It is essential to economic and community development at all levels. It is the way we grow to attract more people and more business allowing them to thrive here in Oneida County. This holistic approach is intended to provide a global understanding and present a real strategy for strengthening our housing sector.”
The housing plan will bring together market influencers and workforce drivers to assess current needs and provide a strategy for the future of housing within the county. The report will include analysis of existing data, housing plans, identified housing needs, and projected housing needs.
