Groveland
Planned Production Affordable Housing Plan
Impacted by 40B residential developments, the Town of Groveland's Housing Committee obtained funding and support from the Board of Selectmen to prepare an Affordable Housing Plan. Building on the recently prepared 418 Community Development Plan, the Housing Committee retained the services of Larry Koff & Associates to continue the 418 planning process. A more detailed housing needs assessment was carried out. The Committee identified the household types most in need and what mix of rental and ownership housing could best fulfill these needs Fifteen sites located within the Downtown, Build-up, Development Management, and a Residential/Resource protection Study Areas were identified and evaluated for addressing these needs. Goals for addressing local housing needs were established. A specific action plan involving the Housing Committee, the Housing Authority, the Selectmen, the CPA Committee, and Town Meeting was identified which would guide the proposed production of affordable housing. Funding and Use Restriction Guidelines were identified for carrying out this plan which was submitted to DHCD for approval. Upon State approval, the Town will seek Certification of its plan when it achieves the production of a minimum of 16 affordable housing units within a given calendar year.
