A Closer Look at Affordable Housing: PlanCheckNC This Saturday

Affordable housing: what is it? Who qualifies? How much are the rents? Where does the money come from? What kind of design elements are required?

This month, Plan Check NC welcomes guest speakers Maurice Ramirez from AMCAL Housing and Matthew Glesne, Housing Planner for the Los Angeles Department of City Planning.

Matthew Glesne is responsible for updating the City’s Housing Element of the General Plan, tracking housing production and advising the Department on various housing issues. He is also the City Planning Department’s liaison to the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG).

PlanCheckNC was created by Neighborhood Council  stakeholders to promote more stakeholder participation in planning and land use issues and make government more responsive to local community needs. The purpose of PlanCheckNC is to help Neighborhood Councils and their stakeholders have the knowledge and tools to develop a vision reflective of the values of neighborhood residents and to develop and implement a land use framework that enables all stakeholders to feel that they are a part of the community– supported, safe and valued by the community.
