This year’s first edition of Breakthroughs has just been posted on the Regulatory Barriers Clearinghouse (RBC) website. In this issue, you’ll read about Bainbridge Island, Washington’s innovative housing program, communities adopting the SmartCode, and Montgomery County, Maryland’s plans for developing a mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly neighborhood.

Check out the January issue of Breakthroughs to see how...

  • Bainbridge Island is encouraging the development of homes that are innovative, affordable, and sustainable;
  • Communities are customizing the SmartCode with added provisions for affordable housing development; and
  • Montgomery County is planning to transform an auto-dependent corridor into a livable and walkable suburban urban center.
