The Sheridan City Council and the Mayor are reaching out to residents seeking public input on the densification of the city’s residential zones. With the real estate and construction market in Sheridan experiencing a boom, prices are high and inventory low. Although this has many positive effects on the community at large, it has made it very difficult for working families to rent, let alone buy a home in Sheridan. And that cuts down the possibility of growing a workforce to attract potential businesses. According to councilman Clint Beaver, the tough housing situation in Sheridan is nothing new. Council and the Mayor have been addressing the issue in meetings and openly to the media for years. The problem; finding lasting solutions.
