Broomfield Housing Authority
The Housing Authority of the City and County of Broomfield (referred to as the Broomfield Housing Authority) is a leading organization working to ensure housing access and opportunity in the community. The organization is led by an appointed Board of Commissioners, who determine the strategic and program direction of the organization. The BHA Commissioners and staff work in collaboration with the many federal, state and local private, not for-profit and government entities in pursuit of shared outcomes and impacts, including Broomfield’s Economic Vitality (Housing) and Human Services Departments.
Vision To create a lasting ethos of seeking solutions for housing availability for the residents of the City and County of Broomfield (Colorado).
Mission To work collaboratively with the public and private sectors to create attainable and sustainable housing options for the broadest spectrum of Broomfield residents.
History
The City and County of Broomfield established a separate, or independent, Housing Authority to increase housing options for its residents. This action followed significant community conversation and research indicating this approach would strengthen and leverage resources and efforts for the benefit of the community. In October 2021, the City Council voted to create the Housing Authority with a mission to leverage external private and public housing financial resources to expand the number of attainable housing units. The Housing Authority will primarily focus on efforts to serve very-low and low-income residents; and may include acquisition of land for future housing, repurposing of buildings, and creating or expanding partnerships. As a separate entity, the Housing Authority will be able to rapidly respond to housing market conditions and potential opportunities.
