Breakthroughs Newsletter
 
January 2008
 
The first Breakthroughs issue of 2008 has just been
posted on the Regulatory Barriers Clearinghouse (RBC)
website, and if you need to rekindle your enthusiasm for
affordable housing during the cold days of winter, this
could be just the ticket. In this issue, you'll read
about cottage housing, new developments in affordable
housing legislation, and housing trust funds.
 
Check out the January issue of Breakthroughs to see...
 
o How communities in Washington State are promoting
diverse housing choices through cottage zoning;
 
o How the state of California is taking action to
support affordable housing development; and
 
o How affordable housing trust funds are making a
difference at the local, county, and state levels.
