The committee unanimously approved sending the proposed inclusionary zoning bylaw to the Planning Board and chose not to exempt the Regional Mall District or any other zone. Auburn’s affordable housing inventory is currently 11.48%, but could fall to 9.9% if the Perry Place project loses valid permits.

The proposal would establish inclusionary zoning rules, but it has not yet been adopted and still must be reviewed by the Planning Board. The committee’s discussion was shaped by the potential loss of housing credit from Perry Place, where 25% of units are designated affordable. A traffic-study bylaw needs more clarification, while no changes were made to accessory dwelling unit or aquifer protection rules.
