    Salem : 2006/2007 one-year action plan (2006)
    (City of Keizer (Or.), 2006-03-25) Salem (Or.); Keizer (Or.)
    The City of Salem’s 2005-2009 [Consolidated] Plan identified the priority needs of the Salem and Keizer communities as homelessness, affordable housing, access and barrier removal and community development. Each of these priorities has an impact on the preservation of affordable housing to low and very low-income neighborhoods within Salem and Keizer. To clearly articulate how those priorities will be met, a second document called the One-Year Action Plan is developed. The One-Year Action Plan outlines what activities, or actions, will be taken in any given year of the Plan to meet the five-year goals. [From the Plan]
