We would like to: reiterate that we are in support of the concept of this ordinance, but have issues with some oft the specifics within it. The overall idea and intent is one we feel will positively impact our work and the broader community. Wel hope you will consider our notes. Overview notes: Not listed in the zoning ordinance, but referenced by the deed restriction: - The Housing Trust would like the Town Council to consider the following: - The deed restriction should include a clause regarding the foreclosure of any home built under the provisions of this amendment which reserves for the Town/Housing trust a right of first refusal to purchase the property, in order to ensure that it remains affordable, instead of reverting to market- We do not plan to use the attached attainable deed restriction, because we will likely have our own deed restriction documents based on our individual projects and lenders/funders. So as long as we are able to use our own deed restrictions, we don'tfeel the need to share further comments on this rate, as is now proposed. one. listed in zoning ordinance notes: We have suggested some minor wording changes along the way, but our major areas of concern 1.A clarification and re-wording of the purpose, (#1 and #2).

Attainable Housing - Residential housing built or: set aside for year round, owner-occupied habitation for sale that is: (a) Available at a purchase price that is affordable to households whose adjusted gross income is no more than 140%, with no lower limit, oft the area median income, adjusted for family size, based on applicable United States Department of Housing and Urban Development schedules; and (b) May only be occupied by a household whose gross household income does not exceed 140% of area median income, adjusted for family size, at (c) Is deed restricted sO as to remain permanently affordable for eligible households to the extent permitted by applicable law, but in no event less than ninety nine (99) years, including a suitable mechanism for monitoring the long term affordability of the units. the time of initial conveyance; and (1) Deed Restrictions must be approved by the Planning Board 2. Affordable- - ATordoble.orthesolepwpeMeAtrAgAngAEBRaBeHOSRE means that owners may spend up to 35% 30% of their gross income on housing, including real property taxes and insurance. Comment: The housing trust recommends aligning with the state and federal number of 30% of gross household income as the limit for household cost burden. The 30% limit isaf federal and state standard that is designed to protect lower income individuals. Even in communities with housing programs that go upi to 140% AMI, the 30% income spending capi is maintained. Creating a targeted housing program that allows up to 35% income expenditure would be unprecedented and out of alignment with other housing policy. - Approval Procedure 1. Special Use Permit. A Special Use Permit to allow up toi four (4) units of Attainable Housing, Moderate Income Housing, or Low Income Housing may be granted by the Planning Board under Unified Development, subject toi the standards set forth below in Subsection d, and together with one of the following 2.

Standards for Attainable Housing Special Use Permit 1. Attainable Housing must consist ofs single family dwelling units. 2. heprepesedeeepmenanemmseelnechatelsdAhe rouminesrstpthegretesesemtpesiae. Comment: This type of vague language is no longer permissible under state law S 45-24-42. Ift the town is going tor require a special use permit, it must' l"establish specific and objective criteria for the issuance of [the permit)." The Housing Trust is not comfortable endorsing this language, as iti is too subjective for an applicant to understand what constitutes as conforming, and leaves open the possibility of discriminatory or unclear enforcement. 3. Reduction in Minimum Lot Areas. Attainable Housing shall be permitted in a Residential Zone: (a) on a lot with a lot area of not less than 30,600 Sq. Ft.; (b) with road frontage no less than 120 feet; (c) with a lot width of no less than 120j feet extending back for 100 feet; and, (d) with a lot width no less than 75 feet wide for the remainder of the lot. 4. Alot created in accordance with the Attainable Housing Ordinance shall not be treated as a substandard lot of record, and shall not be eligible for further subdivision, the placement of an ADU or any relief available to substandard lots ofr record. 5. Other Dimensional Requirements (a) Al lot designated for Attainable Housing, in accordance with the Attainable Housing Ordinance, shall not contain a dwelling larger than 1,800 square (b) Front yard setbacks shalll be no less than 301 ft. and side and rear yard feet, nor a dwelling more than 30 feeti in height; setbacks. shall be no less than 25 ft.; and, (c) Lot coverage shall be no more than 10%. 6.

As this zoning ordinance applies to housing for individuals at. 140%. AMI and below, this would create a different burden ofA proof for new construction only as it pertains to lower income individuals, and not to market rate housing. This has potential to be discriminatory. 7. DEM approved septic..

The first meeting was coordinated by Angela Denham and took] place at St. Catherine's Church in regards to her ongoing request for a senior center. At this meeting, Gary noted that the Oddfellows Hall is slated to become a senior center. During the conversation there was reference to department ofhealth requirements for use ofthe As you know, the Community Center has been implementing the senior lunch program for well over a decade and most recently, we. have invested: much time, energy and resources into the program. In two short years we will nearly double our output ofr meals. The: majority ofa $324,000 grant is slated to bej put towards kitchen improvements later this year, where the primary use and function is the senior lunch program. At this time itis Additionally at this meeting, Gary noted that Angela has requested the use ofal building from 8am-4pm. Aside from previously booked programs and events which could be phased out if a need is determined, our building is available for use during these hours. There is ai misconception that the building cannot be used by other groups when the after school club or summer camp are in session. This is not true. The children need tol be ina a dedicated space, not commingled, but our licensure for the childcare programs does not prohibit us from having numerous groups in the building at the same time. Furthermore, ift this were tol become an issue, the kids are seldom in the building prior to 4pm as we usually play at the playground immediately following dismissal, prior The second meeting I attended, immediately following the St. Catherine's meeting, was with the senior needs assessment workgroup. In attendance from the town council were Bob and Gary in addition to Sue Sisson, her granddaughter Megan who has experience with similar assessments, Tony and Kim Jacobs the recently kitchen and an implication that senior meals would be served at this site. unclear to me: if we will still be the host oft the senior lunch program. to returning to the building for homework and snack. contracted consultant who will implement the survey. The purpose oft this workgroup has been to conduct ai needs assessment to determine what gaps, ifa any, need to be: filled within our community to ensure our senior neighbors are aging in place in a supportive manner. Once the needs are identified then the result would determine ifa senior center was necessary, which programs or activities would transpire and at what location. Gary's announcement: regarding the Oddfellows Hall completely undermines this process and further empowers Angela. Gary, you note that you "want Angela off my back". This has done the complete opposite and has put the Community Center under the microscope yet again. Shame Based on yesterday's meeting at St. Catherine's, a senior center has already been located. Iti is unclear to me what brought us to this decision, who made it, what funding is slated fori it, where the funding came from and what role the Community Center plays in it, ifany. Iti is also now unclear to me, what the purpose of the needs on you. 1 assessment is and why we are spending money on iti if, unbeknownst to the needs assessment workgroup, we have already confirmed the true need (not want) ofas senior center despite having not conducted the assessment. Lastly, it is unclear to me what the Community Center will now do with the $324,000 grant. If we are no longer going to implement the senior lunch program, I will redirect the: funds slated for the kitchen to other needs per Iunderstand iti is an election year and I assume yesterday's meeting had a lot to do with that. Id do not understand why the Community Center, who has worked tirelessly to improve our program implementation and public relations, was not informed ofthis prior to yesterday's meeting. Itis disrespectful atl best. Since joining the team communicated effectively with stakeholders and the general public. Ie expect the same in return, and from town Ini the vein of good partnership, an attribute that has been at the forefront ofr my leadership of the Community Center, I would like answers to the following questions by close of business today. Answers that I should have been made privy to prior to yesterday's meetings and that willl help me understand the future of our primary program, the two full time staff we employ for it, how] I may be shifting funds for the previously mentioned grant and ifI need to: return funds for the senior lunch program from various grant sources and private donors. the building inspection we. had completed ini the Spring of2022. at the Community Center in April of2022, IH have maintained an open door policy and council members especially. The questions are as follows: 1. What led us to the decision to use the Oddfellows Hall as a senior center? 2. What is the proposed budget for the senior center? 3. Who approved the budget? 4. Where are the funds coming from? There were no line items in the annual budget for this. 5.Is the Community Center eliminating the senior lunch program? Ifyes, when?

Thus fari in 2024, we have served 4,129 senior meals, averaging 1881 meals/week, projecting 9,776 meals served this year. Inl May 2024, we announced a shift in our senior lunch sign upi process. This shift prioritizes sign up for delivery to our homebound neighbors and to those who wish to dine in. With much hubbub around town regarding the need for a senior center, andi to support the argument, we feel iti is important for seniors to have the opportunity to enjoy a delicious and affordable: meal with good company in our dining room whenever possible. In short, ifyou want to guarantee you have a Seniors who wish to pick upi their meal are welcome to do sO once the signup window has closed for delivery and dine in. Exceptions are made for seniors who are picking up a meal for their homebound spouse. Meal sign ups are capped at 75 meals/day due to functional limitations of our kitchen and pantry. Simply put, our kitchen wasi not designed tol keep Thel budget for the senior lunch program for our current fiscal year is nearing $130,000 and is thel biggest source of our deficit.

Many of our harshest critics who engage in our programming regularly, and who are: residents ofLittle Compton, are not members oft the Community Center nor dot they support our organization by donating their time, attending our fundraisers or contributing to our annual campaigns like many non-Little Compton residents.

AARP and open Senior Community Hours where the building is free and available to any and all who wish to. gather. Despite all oft these attempts, there are seldom any seniors in attendance. These observations, as many ofyou know, have led me to wonder In closing, we are and have been, very accepting of knowing we will not ever: make everyone happy.
