New London County officials dissect affordable housing plans with an eye on solutions
Area officials on Wednesday discussed the challenges they faced in crafting state-mandated community affordable housing plans, as well as their plans to shift from theory to implementation.
The Affordable Housing Plans forum at Connecticut College was held less than a week after the release of a “scorecard” document grading all New London County municipalities on their progress toward creating more affordable housing in their communities.
The report, crafted by the Center for Housing Equity and Opportunity in Eastern CT, Desegregate CT and Regional Plan Association, gave the region an average score of 2.5 out of 5 points.
