Pulte Homes seeks support for 150-unit affordable housing project in North Plymouth

Plymouth's Select Board meeting on December 10, 2024, spotlighted a significant proposal from Pulte Homes for a new 150-unit housing project in North Plymouth. The board welcomed Pulte back to discuss their plans further and seek a letter of support for the development.

Pulte's project, which encompasses three distinct sites totaling approximately nine acres, aims to provide homeownership condominiums. Each site will feature a 50-unit building, with 38 of those units designated as affordable housing. The proposed buildings will include a mix of one, two, and three-bedroom units, complete with garage parking and access from three different streets: Court Street, Prince Street, and Sandy Drive.

During the meeting, Pulte representatives emphasized their commitment to creating high-quality housing that aligns with community needs. They highlighted their collaborative approach, aiming to ensure that future homeowners feel proud of their new residences. The board expressed appreciation for Pulte's efforts and the detailed planning that has gone into the project.

As the discussion progressed, the board considered authorizing a development agreement with Pulte, which would facilitate the project's advancement. This partnership is seen as a crucial step in making the 40B project beneficial for both the residents and the broader community.

The meeting underscored the importance of affordable housing in Plymouth, with board members and Pulte representatives acknowledging the positive feedback received from previous discussions. The outcome of this meeting could significantly impact the town's housing landscape, addressing the ongoing demand for affordable living options.
