  • Harmonizing building codes within the region to foster development and preservation of affordable housing.
  • Funding development of the Community Land Trust Consortium as described in the Regional Business Plan for CLTs that will provide technical assistance and development of CLTs in the region.

As required by HUD, MARC is soliciting comments on the application for 15 days. Comments will close on Friday, Oct. 11, 2024.
