A Housing Production Plan (HPP) is a community's proactive approach to planning and developing affordable housing. It is achieved by creating a strategy to meet its affordable housing needs in a manner consistent with the Chapter 40B statute.

The Town of Dartmouth’s current plan expired in February 2024, so the Town is seeking grant funding to bring on SRPEDD to assist the Town in updating the plan. Click here to read the most recent plan.

An updated Housing Production Plan will assess Dartmouth’s accomplishments since 2019, develop an updated strategy to meet Dartmouth’s overall housing needs, and assess the various impacts of proposed new developments. It will provide a thoughtful, data-based strategy for meeting the community’s affordable housing goals. The new plan, once completed and approved by the Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (EOHLC), will be effective for five years.

The HPP typically addresses housing needs, challenges, affordable housing qualifications, obstacles, and strategies in planning and implementing affordable housing.

This project is expected to cost $45,000 and is funded by Community Preservation Funds and the District Local Technical Assistance (DLTA) Grant Program.

In June 2024, Town of Dartmouth staff held a project kickoff meeting with SRPEDD for the Housing Production Plan.
