We’ve formed a Housing Working Group comprised of community members and stakeholders that will meet regularly to discuss strategies to help make the vision and goals outlined in our plan a reality. To receive notifications of upcoming meetings, please contact us to be added to our mailing list or follow the Northeast Wilmington Blueprint Community on Facebook!

A community with diverse, safe, clean and warm owner-occupied and rental housing stock attractive to all economic levels; and where the cost of housing is affordable.
Goals
