MHP’s Artie Harris Featured in Bisnow Housing Story

A Bisnow panel focused on how to spur development and job growth in Montgomery County included MHP Vice President of Real Estate Artie Harris.

Harris noted that the Montgomery County officials are ramping up efforts to expand affordable housing access through specific initiatives. These include offering county-owned sites for redevelopment and offering Payment In Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) options for projects that reserve a portion of housing units for moderate and low-income residents. “I think it’s a big priority now,” Harris said.

The full Bisnow story is available here.

The article cites the observations of MHP President Robert A. Goldman during a County Council Planning, Housing, and Economic Development (PHED) Committee hearing.  The full article is here (behind a paywall).

“There’s unbelievable need for resources to do affordable housing,” Robert Goldman, CEO of Montgomery Housing Partnership, a developer, who favors a $100 million fund, told PHED Committee members last week. “Interest rates are rising, construction costs are going through the roof. … We need as much resources as possible.”
