Affordable Housing Plans

In 2022, SCRCOG developed individual municipal Affordable Housing Plans (AHPs) and a Regional Housing Plan (RHP), with assistance from  RKG Associates, Inc., that provided analysis and guidance on how and where each participating municipality can address its housing needs. The AHPs are compliant with Connecticut General Statute 8-30j, and adhere to the process outlined in the “Planning for Affordability in Connecticut: Affordable Housing Plan and Process Guidebook” developed by CT Department of Housing and the Regional Plan Association.

Regional Housing Plan

The Regional Housing Plan is currently under staff review. Updates and drafts will be posted here.

A presentation of the Regional Housing Plan was made to the SCRCOG Board by RKG Associate at the July 2022 SCRCOG Board meeting. Please click here to access the recording of that presentation. Please click here to access the presentation slides.
