2022 Litchfield County Housing Affordability Summit

Zoning and Affordable Housing
Wednesday, October 19, 9:00 am

This session will cover topics including: What is CGS 8-30g (the “Affordable Housing Appeals Act”) and how have groups in Litchfield County used this tool to get affordable housing through the zoning permitting process? What do the recent changes in the State’s Zoning Enabling Act mean for affordable housing (PA 21-29) including accessory apartments? What zoning changes are being considered in recently adopted municipal housing plans?
