Philomath Strategic Planning

The City of Philomath's 2023-2027 Strategic Plan includes work to remove homeownership barriers. To ensure equitable access of homes for everyone, Workforce Housing Philomath is committing to strategies that break down homeownership barriers to our priority populations.


Looking ahead, Workforce Housing Philomath will not only build affordable housing, but the project will center the needs of its priority populations in its home designs and outreach strategies. With an expanded pipeline, Workforce Housing Philomath will have more homeownership opportunities to offer the community and resources to help homebuyers realize their dream of family stability through homeownership.
