2023 Housing Production Plan Update
About the Stow Housing Production Plan
The final product will be a plan that meets the requirements of a Housing Production Plan, as defined by Massachusetts General Laws under Chapter 40B. The final plan will be submitted to the Select Board and Planning Board for adoption. Next, it will be submitted for approval by the State's Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (fka DHCD). The planning process is funded by the Stow Municipal Affordable Housing Trust (SMAHT) and the Planning Department.
Planning Department staff are leading the HPP, with Planning Director Valerie Oorthuys and Land Use Planner/ GIS Administrator Michael Slagle. Gloria Huangpu, Community Engagement Specialist, and Casey Williams, Regional Housing and Land Use Planner, are managing the process at MAPC. Please direct any questions to planning@stow-ma.gov or ghuangpu@mapc.org.
