The Signal West Housing Task Force will meet six times between October 2024 and March 2025 to explore potential housing types, income targets, and funding options and provide recommendations to the Teton Valley Housing Board of Commissioners. 


“We are thrilled to involve our community in Signal West,” said Jerod Pfeffer, Executive Director of Teton Valley Housing. “Housing is at the heart of a healthy community, and we want to make sure that the voices of those who live and work here are part of the process. This task force will play a vital role in making sure the development truly reflects the needs of our residents.”

The 1.136-acre parcel, located in downtown Driggs, was acquired in partnership with Teton County, Idaho, from The Nature Conservancy as part of their commitment to balancing conservation and community needs. This parcel will be the future site of Signal West, a neighborhood designed to provide affordable, quality housing options for residents working in Idaho. 


Nan Pugh, Chair of the Teton Valley Housing Board of Commissioners, also emphasized the importance of community involvement, stating, “The success of Signal West relies on the input and ideas of our community. This is more than just building homes—it's about creating a future for Teton Valley’s workforce and ensuring that we stay true to the values and spirit that make this place special.”

Community members who are passionate about affordable housing solutions and want to make a positive impact are encouraged to apply.

The project is composed of 90 apartments with 23 being deed-restricted as affordable to households earning up to 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI) and 32 units affordable to households earning under 120% of AMI. Construction is currently underway.

The Land Use and Employee Generation Study documents current links between the construction of new commercial and residential development, the employees generated or induced by the development, and those employees’ need for housing. The information may be used by the local jurisdictions in Teton County, Idaho to inform incentive standards and support annexation and entitlement negotiations and other discretionary planning decisions where the impacts of new development on affordable housing may be mitigated. The study will also inform developers on the need for affordable workforce housing to serve their proposed development and encourage inclusion of such housing in their plans.

Economic & Planning Systems delivered the completed Employee Generation Study to Teton Valley Housing this June. The study, funded by Teton County, Idaho, calculates the additional workforce housing demand created by new market residential and non-residential development. This will support local efforts to understand better and address the workforce housing shortage.
