About Us

The RED proposes building not just homes, but communities to support sustainable living in a rapidly changing world. The RED is structured to be efficient, effective and sustainable organization prepared to facilitate creation of housing that meets our shared public policy goals including increased density, transit-oriented development, protection of open space and community separators, improved energy efficiency, climate resilience and affordability, and equity. The RED will jumpstart the shared vision of the City, the County, and the State to harness regional action to meet our community’s diverse housing needs and to protect the environment, support economic vitality, and improve the quality of life for all County residents.
