The Housing Partnership Board discussed a proposed development and said its affordable-housing provisions should remain largely intact. Members identified possible ways to lower costs, including reducing parking if allowed, but did not support a major reduction in income-restricted homes. The Affordable Housing Trust is also preparing to seek builder interest in renovating 160 Forest Street, with a goal of maintaining eligibility for the state's Subsidized Housing Inventory.
