(RECAP: As the price of housing in Charlottesville continues to climb, city officials are weighing several options to ensure that some homes remain affordable for those with lower incomes. City Council was presented Monday with a list of 35 policy recommendations made by the Housing Advisory Committee (HAC), which has spent the past year reviewing a report made by the firm RCLCO that examined housing trends in the community. Some of the changes would require the zoning code to be amended, some can be implemented by staff and others would require permission from the General Assembly. The HAC has also suggested Charlottesville emulate a program from Montgomery County, Maryland, that requires developers to build “moderately-priced dwelling units.” If a builder constructs more than 20 units, up to 15 percent of those new homes must be priced for moderate and low-income units.)
