May 8th - Getting Ahead of the Curve: Anticipating Workforce Housing Proposals


Attention municipal planners and board members AND housing developers!  NH’s workforce housing statute (RSA 674:58-61) outlines specific actions which must be followed by both an applicant and a local land use board when considering any workforce housing application.  Is your town ready?   Is your development team ready?   

Join us for a lively, interactive forum on Tuesday, May 8th from 6:30-8:30pm at the Exeter Town Offices (Nowak Room).  We’ll portray a scenario in which a developer introduces a workforce housing proposal in a small Seacoast-area community.  What are the procedures to be followed? Will the developer and planning board agree on the “economic viability” of the project?  Don’t miss Oscar-worthy performances by:  Kenn Ortmann, Director of Planning and Development for the City of Rochester, Sylvia von Aulock, Planner for the Town of Exeter, and Ben Frost, Director of Public Affairs at New Hampshire Housing.  


Seating is limited so please register in advance by emailing lisa@seacoastwhc.org or calling (603) 205-0539.
