Patrick administration focuses on need for more housing

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 14 November 2012 | 23.14

Gov. Deval Patrick has outlined plans to build 10,000 multi-family units of housing per year with a goal of retaining the state's young, well-educated base of talent.

"Access to housing for our middle- and moderate-income families is an important component in the Commonwealth's continued growth to retain and build our young and innovative workforce," Patrick said yesterday in Worcester. "By working to strengthen and expand our current initiatives and through greater collaboration with organizations and agencies across the Commonwealth, we aim to produce 10,000 multi-family housing units annually. This will further support our state's continued growth and economic competitiveness for generations to come."

Patrick has unveiled a new Compact Neighborhoods program, which is designed to complement smart-growth programs by providing incentives to encourage residential development near transit and town centers. The program will recognize communities planning ahead systematically for economic and housing growth, and will offer Chapter 40B relief and priority consideration in discretionary funding programs, such as the MassWorks Infrastructure Program, Patrick said.

The goal of 10,000 units a year was set after collaborating with the Metropolitan Area Planning Council and the Kitty and Michael Dukakis Center for Urban and Regional Policy at Northeastern University, Patrick said.
