New Inclusionary Zoning Webinar

ARCH: A Regional Coalition for Housing recently released a new 30‑minute webinar that breaks down inclusionary zoning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG0sNkkmcWg&t=558s. Featuring nationally recognized affordable housing expert Rick Jacobus, the webinar offers clear explanations, engaging graphics, and practical insights for policy makers interested in how cities can create more mixed‑income communities. The webinar highlights key incentives that cities can use to support inclusionary zoning, such as increased development capacity, reduced parking requirements, impact fee waivers, and tax exemptions. These incentives help ensure projects remain financially feasible while delivering community benefits. Jacobus also touches on some common misconceptions about inclusionary zoning, which are essential for policy makers to understand as they debate inclusionary policies.
