MONDAY, October 16, at 5:30 pm, the full City Council will take its final vote on the 100% Affordable Housing Overlay (AHO) amendments, a crucial tool for keeping a diverse city by meeting the housing needs of more of our low- and moderate-income residents.

The Council has already taken a preliminary 6-3 favorable vote - THANK YOU to those who wrote or spoke in favor! But opponents of these crucial amendments are mobilizing again. 

So, it is vital that we turn out in force this coming Monday. Your voice can make all the difference in firming up Council support to ensure the final passage of the AHO amendments.

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

Sign up (starting Friday morning) to speak at Monday’s City Council meeting to share your strong support for the AHO amendments.

If you are unable to speak at the meeting, please email your strong support to the City Council - [email protected] (cc the City Clerk - [email protected] and bcc us - [email protected]).
