A key element in Orono's affordable housing efforts is the maintenance of its <br />current affordable housing stock. Several older more densely developed areas of <br />the City provide a jcuhictanrial supply of affordable housing. Because these homes <br />are older it is in^rtant they be adequately maintained to prevent them from <br />deteriorating beyond the point of livabUity or rehabUitation. The City has over the <br />years targeted the majority of its CDBG funds toward housing rel^ilitation. A <br />priority housing goal is to more specifically identify housing rchabUiution needs <br />and determine how to provide adequate resources to meet those needs. <br />The Orono Community Management Plan indicates that "Orono will cooperate with <br />neighboring cities to fulfill area-wide housing needs". The Lake Minnetonka area <br />is comprised of many small cities which, when considered collectively, provid'. a <br />wide range of housing opportunities. Metropolitan Council is encouraged to /iew <br />the Lake Minnetonka area as a whole when considering guidelines for affordable <br />and life-cycle housing for individual cities. <br />68 <br />T" *
