Government Affairs
The Government Affairs Committee (GAC) works to provide the CWHBA Board of Directors with regulatory insight for the benefit of the membership. The GAC operates in both Yakima and Kittitas Counties. Assisted by staff in both locations, the committee members monitor local government, provide testimony, and report on a broad range of subjects like land use, property rights, fee increases, code changes and local elections. The Affordable Housing Council of Central Washington (AHCCW) is the political action arm of the CWHBA. In conjunction with the GAC this committee works to raise money and fund select political issues and candidates for the benefit of the membership. Members serving on the Government Affairs Committee and/or the Affordable Housing Council of Central Washington provide staff with pertinent insight when representing the association and its members. Our government affairs efforts are guided by the goals established by the Board of Directors and the CWHBA Strategic Plan. Keep up with government affairs by reading the Building Today newsletter or viewing our reports on this website.
