<p class="MsoNormal">In December 2021, DHCD and EOHED released draft guidelines and undertook over 3 months of rigorous outreach and collection of almost 400 public comments.  Today, we are announcing the final Guidelines that require these 175 communities
 to adopt multi-family zoning where MF is allowed “as of right” near a transit station if there is one.  Cities and towns with no transit stations are still required to adopt zoning, but have flexibility in the location.  As summarized in a letter to the 175
 MBTA Communities, Secretary Kennealy and Undersecretary Maddox summarized the following changes from draft to final:
