Affordable Housing Committee Description (cont'd)

The committee seeks to learn from and educate the community on issues affecting affordability of housing, finding possible sites for an Incentive Housing Zone, and making recommendations on designs that reflect the rural character of our town.  Economic development, natural resources, services and facilities, open space and transportation will be studied in a housing plan that will build upon and legitimize the work of the 2008 North Stonington Affordable Housing Advisory Committee report.

In 2010 the Board of Selectmen established the North Stonington Affordable Housing Committee and fills its membership by appointment.  The committee currently has 9 members who were selected on their interest in fulfilling the goals of the Committee.
