DESCRIPTION

The government authority in Arlington Heights, Illinois, is seeking housing study services to assess local housing conditions, needs, demand, and opportunities. The study will include demographic research, including priority populations, and collection and analysis of existing housing data such as location, unit type, age, tenure, availability, condition, property values, rents, and affordability levels.

The consultant will develop and facilitate a comprehensive public outreach program involving residents, Village organizations, boards, commissions, and other key stakeholders. Outreach activities may include surveys, pop-up events, stakeholder meetings, and other efforts to gather input on housing-related topics. Questions must be submitted by September 18, 2026, and proposals are due October 9, 2026.
