Takeaways from a Conversation with Secretary Matias on Housing Production
B+T was pleased to attend this recent event featuring Massachusetts Housing Secretary Juana Matias and a timely discussion on the future of housing development in the Commonwealth.
Secretary Matias highlighted site plan review reform as a top priority, emphasizing the importance of greater predictability and more efficient review timelines for advancing housing projects. With Massachusetts targeting 222,000 new homes by 2035, the discussion also covered commercial-to-residential conversions, infrastructure investment and other initiatives aimed at increasing housing production.
Working with both municipalities and developers, B+T appreciates opportunities to engage in conversations about how thoughtful regulatory reform can support housing production and strong communities.
