Zoning for Affordable and Year-Round Housing: Model Bylaw Workshop

Mass Housing Partnership

Please join the MVC for Housing Action Task Force Zoning for Affordable and Year-Round Housing: Model Bylaw Workshop  With Christine Madore of Mass Housing Partnership

Thursday, Sept 14, 2023 at 6:30 p.m. on Zoom

Information to join the meeting will be posted on the MVC’s online calendar 48 hours prior: https://www.mvcommission.org/calendar

Come join us to discuss key zoning reforms towns can adopt to advance year-round and affordable housing in a way that :

  • protects habitat and open space by focusing on infill
  • meets climate goals by emphasizing density over sprawl
  • supports the character of the community

In this Model Bylaw Workshop, we will be looking at 4 key zoning levers our rural towns can utilize, and what they would look like applied locally to meet community priorities:

  1. ADUs by Right
  2. Multi Family
  3. Mixed Use
  4. Undersized Lots

This meeting is open to the public.

Town boards and committees are especially encouraged to attend!

The meeting will be recorded, and the recording posted to the MVC You Tube Channel, on the Housing Playlist after the event: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRMAJBkKc54P0ukfZaa-xv_srbyCedORb
