City staff, in partnership with the newly-established Salisbury Fair Housing Committee and the Centralina Council of Governments (CCOG), will work together over the upcoming months to conduct a fair housing study as part of the city’s Analysis of Impediments (AI) update project, in compliance with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). 
     The survey asks questions of all residents surrounding current housing types, assistance programs, housing discrimination, predatory lending and senior housing. The survey is available both online at www.salisburync.gov/FairHousing in English and Spanish, and in hard copy form, which will be distributed in key locations and at events throughout Salisbury. The soft deadline to complete the survey is Thursday, Feb. 28. Completed hard copies can be mailed or dropped off at 132 N. Main St., Salisbury, N.C. 28144.
