This workshop addresses barriers to housing production on the Lower & Outer Cape by providing effective strategies to create more homes in your town. You will leave this workshop with the knowledge and language to support housing initiatives as well as a firm understanding of what must be done to solve your town’s housing crisis. We’ll explore the following questions:
- What is housing, affordable and attainable?
- What are the various types of housing that would meet the need of a diverse community?
- What do we need to get the best housing?
- What housing developments are happening in your town?
