Housing Trust Member Rachel Heller presented the Trust's proposal for Community Preservation Act (CPA) funding at Town Meeting on May 30th, 2024. After a vigorous debate, the requested amount of $275,000 was approved for the purpose of developing and supporting Affordable housing in the Town of Belmont.

We celebrate this as a “win” in the Town’s efforts to encourage a diverse range of housing types by funding consulting support and grants for development.
