Their work on the Affordable Housing Permit Now program, which streamlines the review of 100% affordable housing projects to get homes built faster, was recognized.
Launched in response to an executive order from Mayor Todd Gloria, the Affordable Housing Permit Now program has helped move 63 projects forward. That’s 2,848 affordable homes built, 1,589 under construction and 2,809 currently in process – a total of 7,246 homes so far!
