Next Steps for Compliant MBTA Communities

Join MHP, CHAPA, and EOHLC staff to learn about opportunities and strategies for MBTA Communities in a post-compliance world.

Tuesday, August 19, from noon to 1:30 p.m. via Zoom

The majority of MBTA Communities are now in compliance with Section 3A of MGL 40A, and cities and towns have designated specific locations as the “right place” to expand housing opportunities for their residents. A significant amount of new multifamily housing is currently proposed or underway in 3A Districts. How are staff and officials from MBTA Communities preparing to manage and benefit from new or existing multifamily districts?

Join MHP, CHAPA, and EOHLC staff to learn about opportunities and strategies for MBTA Communities in a post-compliance world.

Specific topics will include:

- MHP’s expanded technical assistance program for MBTA communities

- HLC funding opportunities

- Project-focused advocacy and engagement strategies

- Staying in compliance

There will also be time for idea sharing and Q&A.
