Improving Local Rental Policies

Housing Greenfield seeks to improve existing housing so that the health and safety of residents can be improved, especially for low-income residents, all without causing undue gentrification.

See policy statement adopted in March 2024.

Without reliable data on rental units in town (different sources have differing information) it is challenging to develop enforceable, comprehensive policies.  Therefore, Housing Greenfield applied for and received a grant through CHAPA (Citizens’ Housing and Planning Association) to conduct voluntary house-to-house surveys in some neighborhoods.  The initial report from this work is here.
