Smart Growth Network Webinar -- The Affordable City: Strategies for Putting Housing Within Reach (and Keeping it There)

As communities struggle to address rising housing costs and household instability, the debate often centers on solutions such as increased housing construction and stronger tenant protections. 

Join the Maryland Department of Planning and the Smart Growth Network at 1 p.m. Eastern, Tuesday, October 13, as Shane Phillips, author of the new book, The Affordable City, explores the roles that tenant protections, housing supply, and subsidies can play in the effort to make communities more affordable and accessible. 

Phillips will examine concrete actions -- including rezoning, rent control, housing vouchers, density bonuses, homeownership programs and others -- that housing advocates and policymakers can work to enact in their communities.

Participants of the live webinar are eligible for 1.5 AICP CM credits.
