Little Traverse Bay Housing Partnership


Harbor Inc. was part of the grassroots efforts to start the Little Traverse Bay Housing Partnership when the impact of the housing crisis in Emmet County could no longer be ignored.

A group of concerned citizens gathered together from all sectors of the housing “community” - land owners, developers, construction companies, financial institutions, local governments, major employers, property managers, nonprofit agencies, technical training institutions, realtors, architects, foundations, and others - to identify and acknowledge the problem and together develop solutions.

Harbor Inc. played an important role in formulating the Partnership, helping LTBHP get up and running, and educating the public on the housing crisis. In 2019, Harbor Inc. received a grant from the Petoskey Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation in order to continue providing administration, awareness, and advocacy to LTBHP.
