"The city council’s second priority [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/home/showdocument?id=3311 ] is to preserve and increase availability of all types of housing and this is an important topic for our community. The City is committed to providing information to our community to answer commonly asked questions and increase awareness of local housing issues. Over the next few weeks, the City will be sharing series of informational posts about housing and we hope this information is helpful as we all build a common understanding of housing issues in Kenmore."
