Residents invited to forum/brunch on accessory apartments

The Lincoln Housing Commission invites all residents to a forum and brunch at Bemis Hall on Thursday, July 28 at 11 a.m. to participate in a discussion about developing accessory apartments in Lincoln.

The purpose of the meeting is to gather opinions about various ways to provide small or smaller units for current residents who want to stay in Lincoln. Some have houses in which they would like to remain but are larger than they need, and/or require more work than they want to continue to do.  To accomplish that goal, they would provide a small unit in their existing home at regular or subsidized rates. On the other hand, there are folks whose resources, for various reasons, are limited but who also want to remain in Lincoln and only need or can only afford smaller units.

The meeting will provide an opportunity to hear how to deal with town regulations, guidance on design and construction  issues.  Those with limited resources will hear discussions about the information they need to provide to be eligible to live in these units.
