Great discussion outlining the basic facts of housing challenges in Maine.

We agree with all of our Supervisors. And we especially agree with Chair Rabbitt that there is no single silver bullet solution to our housing crisis. We need to do more than one thing at a time.

"Decades on, “fair housing” is a bedrock principle in American communities. But the concept has significantly evolved since the term initially emerged in 1968." As we continue to highlight the importance of the Fair Housing Act this month, WakeUP Board Secretary and housing advocate Hattie Gawande takes a look at the history of this act and how it impacts us locally today.

On the one hand, New Towns are a marvel, but on the other, we simply must re-invest in our existing towns and infrastructure. It makes so much more economic sense to retrofit and refurbish existing buildings and high streets than it does to carve new towns out of fields (brown, grey, or green doesn't matter). The embodied carbon sitting in derelict buildings is a ticking time bomb...we need to bring those buildings back to life now, before they are so delapidated there is no choice but to knock them down. Every person reading this post will immediately know of an abandoned or under-used building near them that could, with a bit of imagination, be brought back into use. Where is the #PresumptionOfRetrofit and #DontWasteBuildings ethos? I want to envision better spaces and to revitalise our communities, rather than ignoring them and moving on to the next new shiny thing. Let's #RetrofitOneMillionHomes and then maybe we move on to new builds!

#MHCLG and #HomesEngland have worked hand in hand since the election to develop the key concepts, outline the risks, the opportunities and the potential routes forward to help advise the Minister and Government on the next generation of #NewTowns. It's amazing how much expertise sits in both organisations which has helped to underpin the journey so far. This isn't any flight of fancy - this is an amazing future and real delivery on a scale we have not seen for a generation. I'm so glad to see this finally launch in #Stevenage, and Sir Michael Lyons and Dame Kate Barker will be brilliant in leading this. Whilst there were many hands helping bring it to this point, Julia Krause and John Whetstone MRICS have played a critical role and been amazing. Biased, I know, given they are on my team! #HomesEngland have played a critical role in the current generation of large scale delivery, from #HarlowandGilston to #MeridianWater and beyond. Now we'll be bringing our unmatched expertise in funding, infrastructure, delivery and placemaking to support this transformational programme. Personally, living in a town that has over 8,000 homes underway that will double it's size, and minutes from Urban&Civic's Tempsford scheme, this is both incredibly exciting and reassuring. It's the real change we have been asking for - from sporadic development often delivered through Appeal decision, to thought out, connected, planned settlements our kids will be proud to live in. I urge everyone to read the press release and forthcoming documents. Critical is the first bullet point about the work plan. It confirms over the next 12 months the Taskforce will be "Meeting with new and existing communities to hear first-hand about the design of desirable developments". That's where the work starts and tells you how much this isn't about numbers but about you, and me, and the people we care about. Let's make this brilliant. #WeAreHomesEngland #NewTowns #delivery #regeneration #development #planning #housing

Mention Kansas City, Missouri to anyone today and images of world-famous BBQ, Championship Sports, and a budding public romance all contribute to the reputation of a city on the rise.   In a less public way, we’ve been transforming a historical and socially diverse corner of this Midwestern town … one Neighborhood, one Project and one Family at a time. A New View on Life is story about Affordable Housing - A niche segment of the real estate market where demand continues to grow, while supply is projected to shrink. While this might sound like a recipe for investor frenzy, it’s actually a cautionary tale … for those that pursue HUD’s mission to provide “decent, safe and sanitary housing” should not underestimate or oversimplify its complexities. https://lnkd.in/grt4yK4F 4Sight Construction Group #affordablehousing #kansascity #lihtc #section8
