CHALT sponsored a public forum on TINY HOMES on February 19th at the Chapel Hill Public Library. Susan Levy, Executive Director Orange Council Habitat for Humanity began the forum by describing the housing crisis for people in low and lower income levels in Chapel Hill and Orange County. She indicated that as a community, we need to explore all options that help address the affordability of housing and that Tiny Homes provide one such option.
April Kemper then gave a detailed overview of Tiny Homes and what is required in town policies along with what other North Carolina Communities have been doing to support Tiny Homes. Three panelists then shared their experiences with living in Tiny Homes. Over 100 people attended the forum.
