Plymouth Affordable Housing Trust outlines 2026 application outreach, partnerships
Summary
The Trust discussed outreach for 2026 applications, plans to coordinate with local partners and builders, and assigned board members to follow up on training and community partners; staff will check how group homes are counted on the SHI list.
At its Feb. 18 meeting the Plymouth Affordable Housing Trust reviewed plans to publicize and support its 2026 application cycle.
Trust members and staff agreed to coordinate outreach with local partners and builders. The minutes record action items including speaking with "Casey" about the application, being proactive with builders, and increasing public notice. The Trust also noted partnerships or contacts with the Massachusetts Housing Partnership (MHP) and Duxbury classes on affordable housing; Kathy Dunn was listed to reach out to Neighborhood Works–Kingston for information and Christopher Knoth to follow up on first-time homebuyer classes.
Director of Community Development Peggy Whalen was asked to investigate how group homes are addressed on the Subsidized Housing Inventory (SHI) list. The minutes do not record public comment or a formal vote on outreach strategy; they list individual follow-ups to improve applicant outreach and training opportunities.
Next steps recorded in the minutes are outreach contacts and follow-up by the named board members and staff.
