What Are Some Ways Fort Worth Is Approaching Affordable Housing?
We recently covered one newer approach, previously seen in a few other cities including Houston + Austin: the community land trust. The city is trying it out with help from The Rainwater Charitable Foundation + land that previously was owned by Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary .
A major element of the City of Fort Worth 's 2050 Comprehensive Plan, of course, is more affordable housing and options.
Towards that end, they've also launched other initiatives dating back to fall 2023, and per NPR , the city's 2026 bond program may include affordable housing, which would be a first.
