  • City of Duluth 2014 Housing Indicator Report
    City of Duluth 2014 Housing Indicator Report Released: May, 26 2015 Prepared by: Community Development Division 407 City Hall Duluth, MN 55802 Telephone: 218-730-5480 2014 Housing Indicator Report Executive Summary The City of Duluth produces annually the Housing Indicator Report. This report tracks from year to year a core group of datasets from the US Census Bureau, St. Louis County Assessor’s Office, Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development, Duluth Area Association of Realtors, and City of Duluth. The report is in its 12th iteration and has tracked Duluth’s Housing Market from the crash in 2008 to the crunch in 2013. The trends in 2014 continue those first highlighted in 2012. Affordability continues to be an issue especially as the rental market and ownership market continue to be tight. New production of units and a high amount of renovation suggest more units in the near future. This report is beneficial to housing developers and providers alike. Homeownership The metrics for homeownership show an improving housing market. The number of home sales and median price are near pre-recession values for the second year in a row. However, the number of newly constructed single-family homes has not fully recovered resulting in the majority of Duluth’s housing stock being built before 1950. Below are the key highlights for homeownership in 2014. The number of foreclosures in Duluth decreased from 189 in 2012 to 156 in 2013 to only 116 in 2014. This is a decrease of 25.6%. The percentage of Homesteaded properties in Duluth remained level at 58.6%.

  • 2006 Comprehensive Plan
    Introduction Introduction Legal Basis for Comprehensive Planning This document, the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Duluth, sets forth the vision, prin- ciples, policies, and recommended strategies that have been embraced by the City to shape its future. This Plan is Duluth’s first adopted Comprehensive Plan since 1927. As comprehen- sive plans typically look forward approximately 20 years, the City has been operating without a common vision or framework on development and protection policies for 60 years. Change has not, however, taken a 60-year hiatus, and the lack of a comprehensive plan foundation has Introduction led to difficult and controversial decision-making. Regulatory structure that was created 50 years ago frequently does not lead to efficient growth patterns and hamstrings efforts to ap- ply sustainable development and protection strategies. Sub-area and neighborhood planning efforts have captured components of the overall vision, but lack the foundation upon which such efforts can cohesively tie together city-wide systems and investments. With the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan the City has now restored its foundation from which it can now shape its own future. Over the last thirty years the City of Duluth has witnessed a dramatic transformation of its local and regional economy, a refocusing on natural resource assets as a defining element of Municipal Comprehensive Plans its community character, and a resurgence of community and neighborhood pride. The City A municipality (i.e., a city or township) may carry desires a plan to guide development and protection decisions and to direct infrastructure on comprehensive planning activities for guiding choices in an era where capital is scarce.
