16 Great Neck Road North <br />.Atashpee, Massachusetts 0264g <br />be incorporated into the draft, and then the draft would be sent to the Planning Board for same <br />review and comment. Once a point of comfort is reached with the document, it would then be <br />sent to the Select Board and finally to DHCD for certification. The process should take a little <br />more than one year. It will launch in January of 2023 and end into early 2024. He will begin <br />procurement next week. <br />Ms. Waygan provided him with some language to use. Minimum requirements for the state can <br />always go beyond that. Affordable housing goes on the SHI, the 10% goal, but there is other <br />housing like workforce housing that goes above certain income requirements, that still serve <br />the community and don't count towards the 10%. She spoke to the Affordable Housing <br />Committee and she asked to put local preference for 950 Falmouth Road with 40 units on their <br />next agenda. At the Tribal meeting, Tribal preference was discussed. She asked the AHC to <br />draft a letter for the Tribe to be considered, it would account for 70%, 28 units could be <br />preference units. The state or subsidizing agency would allow a mix of local, veterans, and <br />Tribal citizens for preference. She is hoping the AHC gets a letter drafted for that so it can be <br />taken to the Select Board. MASS Housing Partnership's workforce program serves households <br />that earn 60-120% AMI, and units on the SHI have to be at 80% or lower, so there is some <br />overlap. If the state is funding, it should go on the inventory. <br />Mr. Lehrer is confident there is local preference. As for the 10% goal, there is a far greater <br />need than that. The workforce programs are relatively new. <br />ADU Workshop <br />This is something Mr. Lehrer will do with his new Assistant. They will be holding coffee hours <br />on Fridays with conversation. This is an opportunity to think about what is needed amongst <br />fellow department heads and he will have Jennifer spearhead the advertising for the event. He <br />could offer it via signups, but it is ultimately for the public to learn. <br />Ms. Waygan asked they give notice to the Building Department, as people ask them about <br />ADU's they could be jotting people's names down. She inquired if they do enforcement of <br />illegal apartments. <br />Mr. Lehrer knows of one enforcement off of Nathan Ellis Highway, they built an illegal <br />staircase. <br />Clean Water Initiative <br />Low Impact Development passed at Town Meeting. They also had the clean water bylaw. She <br />noted May will be packed with Warrants. <br />13 <br />
