Mission Statement: “To promote the production and
preservation of balanced housing resources that address the
unmet needs of the Town of Barnstable”
The Housing Committee facilitates the development of
and equal access to affordable housing. The Committee also
serves as the Town’s Local Housing Partnership. In this role,
and in conjunction with the Town Manager, the Committee reviews
and makes recommendations on housing proposals that are seeking
local support under the Department of Housing and Community
Development (DHCD)’s Local Initiative Program (LIP).
The Committee advises the Town Manager and Town Council
regarding policies and programs aimed at reaching the Town’s
goal of making a minimum of 10% of its housing stock affordable
in perpetuity. The Committee meets with the Town Council to
advise the Councilors of issues pertaining to affordable
housing and to discuss policies to effectuate fair and
affordable housing in the Town.
In addition, Committee members actively participate with the
Zoning Board of Appeals in the review of Chapter 40B
Comprehensive Permit proposals (the state statute which allows
the waiver of local regulations to build affordable housing). As
such, applicants are encouraged to meet with the BHC in the
early stages of the development of any affordable housing
proposal.
The committee has also recently taken on the role of approving
affordable housing units created through the Town’s Inclusionary
Affordable Housing Ordinance (Chapter 9, Article I of the Town
Code), and monitoring the long term affordability of the units.
The Special Projects Coordinator,
Affordable Housing provides staff support to the Committee.
