HD 4767 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to Affordable Housing Trust Fund of the town of Edgartown

This bill allows Edgartown's Affordable Housing Trust to use funds for community housing projects targeting households earning up to 180% of Dukes County's median household income (as reported by HUD). It directly affects low-to-moderate-income residents in Edgartown who qualify under this income threshold. The key provision expands the trust's spending flexibility for general housing funds, while explicitly stating that Community Preservation Act funds must still follow their separate income limits. The change clarifies how existing trust resources can be applied to support more households in affordable housing.
