Esther Charlestin on Welfare & Poverty

 

 


Support Act 250: more affordable homes

Vermont's housing crisis is constantly on my mind, and it is an issue I feel must be attacked from multiple angles. First, we need to build more affordable homes. Plain and simple. And updating Act 250's land use policy to allow for the construction of more affordable homes was the kind of bipartisan compromise I would champion if elected, rather than vetoing it as Gov. Scott did. Second, we need to increase aid for low and middle income residents to purchase, rent, and keep homes. This means looking at inclusionary zoning, supporting housing first models, implementing rental and second home taxes, and increasing urban density.
