Help shape the future of housing in Wellesley.
The Wellesley Housing Task Force and Barrett Planning Group will hold an in-person community meeting on Tuesday, June 18 from 6:30-8:00 p.m. at Wellesley High School (50 Rice Street).
This meeting is part of a planned community engagement program to gather input and feedback as the Town develops its new Strategic Housing Plan.
The public, and especially residents, developers, business owners, and service providers are encouraged to attend. The meeting will include a presentation on the current state of housing in Wellesley and the opportunity for all participants to provide insight on future housing needs in our community.
Wellesley's existing Housing Production Plan was approved in 2018 and was intended to guide the Town for five years.
Despite meeting many of the recommendations in the 2018 plan, the housing market in Wellesley has evolved and Massachusetts has passed new regulations, such as the MBTA Communities Law, that impact housing. As a result, the Town has determined it needs to develop new strategies to create the varied housing needed to support our community.
The meeting will be recorded and uploaded to Wellesley Media for public viewing.
