Jericho Affordable Housing Committee
The Jericho Affordable Housing Committee was established by the Selectboard in November of this year with a mission to increase the availability of affordable housing in order to support a more diverse, vibrant and inclusive community by lowering economic, racial and social barriers to living in Jericho.
What will the Jericho Affordable Housing Committee do?
- Collect relevant data to inform decision making by the Planning Commission and Selectboard (Potentially through a formal Housing Needs Assessment).
- Fundraise sufficient money through donations, grants and other means to assist with the development of affordable housing options.
- Serve in an advisory capacity to the Town regulatory bodies (e.g. Selectboard, Development Review Board) and other Town commissions (e.g. conservation commission, planning commission).
- Work with local, state, and regional entities to obtain funding and promote a favorable climate for affordable housing.
- Educate the public on the affordable housing needs and opportunities in Jericho.
- Advocate for affordable housing on the local and state level.
