THE CURRENT PRACTICE FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING
INCLUSIONARY DEVELOPMENT POLICY (IDP)
Private developers must dedicate 13% of total units as affordable on-site
or... Create an amount equal or greater than 18% of total units as affordable offsite but within the same vicinity (within a half mile) or... Pay fee to the IDP Fund and bypass construction of affordable units in house.

THE CURRENT PRACTICE FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING
SECTION 8 HOUSING VOUCHERS: Householes which use Section 8 housing vouchers pay a portion of their rent based on their income and the rest is directly paid for by the federal government. Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC): Federal housing assistance program meant to incentivize the construction of affordable units/apartments. Bromley Heath Aparments: Jamaica Plain
