[Massplanners] Communities that have taken advantage of new housing choice voting thresholds?

[Paul Halkiotis]

Good Afternoon Paige, 
Last June Town Meeting Members approved Zoning Bylaw and Map amendments in Norwood that rezoned the 4 mile Rte. 1 corridor. Two areas along the corridor have Mixed Use Overlay districts that require multifamily housing as part of the inclusionary zoning element of the Bylaw amendments. After a few hours of debate we scored a unanimous vote of approval.

I have been asked to inquire whether any communities have used the new majority rule for certain housing provisions, as now permitted under the new housing choice law. 
If your community has, would you please share and let us know what type of zoning was passed and whether the margin was between 51 - 65%. 

Thank you in advance.
