Adequate housing is a key element of sustainable and vibrant communities. The Region’s housing stock needs to support the people who live and work in their community and have the potential to expand and accommodate future population increases and economic growth. Available housing in our villages and towns need to be safe, affordable, energy efficient, and accessible for all sectors of the population.

The Addison County Regional Planning Commission works with member towns and regionally to develop regulatory and non-regulatory solutions, supporting concepts such as, compact and walkable centers, clustered development, a variety of housing types, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), shared infrastructure and transit-accessible communities, in order to address our current housing issues.
