Senate Joint Resolution 8 (SJR 8) directs Delaware State Housing Authority (DSHA) to create a pilot program to support local zoning reform efforts. The program will provide technical assistance to interested municipalities to modernize their zoning and land use codes, with the goals of encouraging a greater variety of housing types, promoting compact, mixed-use development, and addressing housing affordability challenges.
Participation in the pilot is entirely voluntary, and municipalities will be able to select the zoning and land use reforms that they are interested in pursuing from the menu listed below. The technical assistance provider will work directly with each municipality to assist in the development and implementation of the selected reforms.
