In March 2008 the Town Council established an ad hoc Workforce Housing Commission. The purpose of this commission was to advise the Council on the Woods Road Workforce Housing Project. The charge of the workforce housing commission was to:
1.Review proposals from developers for Woods Road Workforce Housing Project, and make a recommendation to Town Council for a preferred developer.
2.Work with the preferred developer selected by the Town Council to prepare final proposal for review by Town Council.
3.Make a recommendation to the Town Council regarding the ongoing management of the Woods Road Workforce Housing Project.
The Town worked with the team of Developers Collaborative and Portland Builders on the Woods Road project for some time. However, in May 2009 the Council decided to no longer pursue this project. The Commission has since been disbanded.
