Pierce County Human Services plans to invest $11.4 million in five affordable housing projects across the region, adding and preserving 220 affordable homes, according to ConnectCRE.

The new allocation will increase the total number of affordable homes backed by the Maureen Howard Affordable Housing Act to 1,545 units built or preserved since the county began collecting a one-tenth of 1% local sales tax in mid-2023, ConnectCRE reported.

Pierce County Executive Ryan Mello said the new units will provide stability for people across the county, and that the act continues to make a difference for the county's most vulnerable residents and working families, as cited by ConnectCRE.
