CREATING AFFORDABLE HOUSING• Mounting need for low income and affordable housing
• Areas most conducive to building new affordable housing are the older parts of town
• Affordable land prices, physical & human infrastructure present, more walkable, better access to new jobs that are being created
• Planned revitalization produces mixed income, mixed use neighborhoods and brings new residents, maintenance, retail, and service jobs within walking distance
• Redevelopment must be strategic. Unplanned revitalization results in gentrification, and economic expulsion of even more low income people from housing, exacerbating homelessness.
