Portland’s low-income housing program fails to help intended population, audit finds

A Portland program aimed at increasing housing availability for low-income individuals is not meeting its goals, as revealed by a recent city audit. The Inclusionary Housing program lacks proper oversight of property owners, fails to provide adequate resources, and mainly benefits those earning 60% or 80% of the Median Family Income. The program's impact on individuals facing the greatest economic disparities is limited, with recommendations made to improve its effectiveness.
