Innovative Affordable Housing Strategies for Smaller Jurisdictions and Tourist-Based Economies

Smaller jurisdictions and tourist-based economies face unique challenges in addressing housing affordability, navigating growth constraints, and meeting the needs of diverse populations. This session brings together leaders from two housing authorities and a prominent developer to share innovative strategies that have successfully tackled these issues.

The panel will explore topics such as preserving naturally occurring affordable housing, integrating supportive housing within developments, and leveraging public-private partnerships to achieve functional zero homelessness. Attendees will also learn about alternative financing mechanisms beyond traditional state funding and how to incorporate inclusionary housing requirements within Disposition and Development Agreements (DDA). In addition, panelists will discuss lessons learned from creating middle-income housing under growth constraints.

Join us for an engaging discussion as experts from both public and private sectors share their insights and experiences in developing scalable solutions to enhance housing availability and sustainability in smaller communities and tourist-based regions.
