We’re thrilled to announce Stefan Pellegrini as the keynote speaker for our 2026 Regional Solutions event: Finding Middle Housing! 🏠

Stefan was recently involved in the release of the Missing Middle Housing Toolkit for the State of Utah, a resource designed to help planners, local leaders, and communities better understand Middle Housing and explore how diverse housing types can fit within Utah communities.

As housing demand continues to grow across Salt Lake County and the region, this year’s event will take a closer look at the policies, market realities, and real-world strategies shaping the future of Middle Housing.

Whether you’re a planner, elected official, housing advocate, developer, or community member, you’ll leave with practical tools and actionable ideas to help bring more attainable, neighborhood-friendly housing options to life in your community.
